Default Beat: May be losing my dream job

To make a long story short, I am currently working my dream job as an accouting/finance consultant. I work usually about 6 hours a week and get paid $90k per year. How this is possible is not relevant, but basically I am also playing 20-25 hours of poker a week, so basically I am getting paid for two jobs.

Anyway, our market leader has called a mandatory meeting for 4pm in the office today, and obv a friday afternoon meeting is never a good sign. Our market has been doing pretty poorly, especially when compared to others in the country, and I think they might decide to pull out of our market/city.

This means I might actually have to get a real job again. WTF!

Maybe if you worked more than 6 hours a week?

Not possible without clients to work on. The market leader is the one who is slacking here.
