This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Op could have made worse choices overall. ATVs are pretty cool. Soil is soil. Coulda been a cubicle monkey. At least op is getting some sun.
ATV is cool, yeah!
But sampling soil from who-knows-where is shit. Imagine two weeks of rain at 4 °C and everyday you have to drive out. You are muddy, you are wet, you are freezing.
I'd take a substantial pay cut for the opportunity.

I wouldn't
You're not wrong. I make enough money at my current work that I'm hoping to be able to stop working w/i about 10 years (I'd be in my mid 40's) and then go do some kind of outdoors work (ideally as a park ranger or game warden) where I'd be able to get back to my redneck roots and be away from the city 75% of the time.
