The Secret to Job Satisfaction

True to my word in last Friday's post, this weekend I attended a bachelorette party and spent a few minutes chatting (more like yelling, as the music pulsated through the room) with a management consultant. He mentioned that he was working on a PhD in Happiness.
"So, how does happiness relate to management consulting?" I asked.
"Well, someday I hope to help people be happier in their jobs," he said with an earnestness that would been really cute if I were single.
"I know the secret to being happy in your job," I told him. "Be self-employed."
He couldn't argue with that.
