One major upside of why I still do this job is exactly what I just quoted.

I get taxed up the wazoo, (let's not get into percentages again in that other thread), and the points earned in hotels + airfare and AMEX points is mind boggling. And it's not taxed.

That's the main plus of all of the garbage I put up with.

Plus, I have all of you on FT. You all keep me (relatively) sane
