What is something you are good at doing but don't enjoy?

1. My current job in IT

I am IT Director, help desk, network engineer, system administrator, ERP administrator, SQL DBA, report writer, data analyst, data entry clerk, responsible for anything that runs on electricity that no one else wants to bother with, on call 24x7x365. My vacation days just mean I only work when I get a call or email, and I get to do that from the beach. I hate my job.

2. Being an employee

See #1

3. Mowing grass

What did that grass ever to do me to deserve getting chopped in half every few weeks? I want to turn my yard into a perennial food Forrest.

LOL I should've emphasized that the "normal" 40 hours is help desk, data entry and being continuously bombarded by questions and demands. The early mornings, late nights and weekends are when I get to do some cool stuff if I have any energy and willpower left. I get paid OK considering the low cost of living in my area, but the older I get the more I value my precious time over any amount of money. I have at most 10-15 hours per week to focus on things that matter to me.
