I really loved my work -- and my job -- for several years. I couldn't wait to get into the office in the morning and worked most evenings till I had to get sleep. But eventually I developed broader interests and experienced really awful management.

But I still like certain parts of RF device engineering enough that I've gone back to work almost 1/4-time. I don't need the paycheck, but I enjoy helping some colleagues with a start-up company. I can and have made a significant contribution toward their success and they are very appreciative. I'll quit doing this the day it stops being fun, but so far it is fun for me.
