Do you like your job and/or career?

[Esquilax]

I am a pornographer. Some of my work day is spent looking at naked women and men for inspiration, and the rest is spent writing luridly described scenes of people fucking. I work from home and can take breaks whenever I want, so... yeah, I like my job.

The big downside is that, since I do set my own hours and my revenue is based entirely around my productivity, all hours are work hours. I don't get weekends off or anything like that, and even if I am working I need to be getting stuff down onto a page, making writer's block completely crippling. It's a pretty inconsistent job, really: some days I'll work for two hours, some days it'll be a Saturday and I'll go from nine in the morning to two in the next morning.

Oh, also, since I take on private commissioners too, I have to deal with difficult people injecting themselves into my art, who don't exactly see themselves as held to professional standards. So they make contact outside of business hours and expect replies within fifteen minutes... people are terrible when they're paying you for something, even if it's cash on delivery, not cash in advance.
