Jobs I've worked at

What is it that we spend more time doing than waiting at stoplights (unless you are a truck driver)? Sleeping? Spending time with your family? Work! Okay so work times may vary from person to person and their career path, but to me its felt like I spend more time with people at work than I do any portion of my family.
