What's your paid job and what's wrong with it?

From what I've seen a lot of us are not professional full time musicians as much as most of us would like to be; so what do you do for a living and what about your job really doesn't agree with you, in short what about your job sucks that you wish you knew about before entering that line of work?

Help someone considering a new line of work make an informed decision by not just hilighting the good points of a job!

I'll start, I am an Auto Damage Appraiser for a major insurance carrier. The days can get quite long, people can be downright belligerent not to mention out right liars when discussing damage to their cars. Supervisors are constantly nit picking at little tiny mistakes you make in your estimates and every year they set absolutely un attainable goals for you to achieve so that when at the end of the year you don't make them they have an excuse to downsize your annual increase.
