I think yours beats mine, but I'm enjoying my new job.

I now work from home, sitting in a big comfy chair in my room with all my music. I can wander off and take a break anytime I please, same with eating etc. I have a coffee machine and some very tasty coffee. I have a shop right next door for snacks. A 2meg internet connection on which I tend to play some online RPG's or browse forums as I work. I get to boss two of my friends around. I can go out whenever I like so I don't miss any social events due to work anymore so long as I keep up with my schedual at some point. Oh and when I'm feeling a bit uninspired I just have a few ice cold beers. All this and I'm being paid about 25 quid an hour for my time, doing something I actually quite like, and courtesy of laptop with wireless internet I can even work in bed (not that I've resorted to being that lazy yet).
