I don't actively work in warehouses.. I do it from time to time and when I do I make more than $8.50/hr.. It's good to keep skill sets in use and I like driving heavy equipment. Taking a job, when you don't really need it is a lot different than taking a job and working the daily grind. Personally I don't mind working, I tend to do it in 2 to 3 month stints anymore than that and I get tired of it..

Last place I worked, I was making $18/hr and a short term contract job and I walked away with a bit over $10k worth of items for my resell biz. (They were shutting down part of their company. I worked for them in the past and they needed someone to come in to inventory their stuff for auction.. I bought a lot of it. It was like printing money, I inventoried it and have access to the PO's so I knew exactly what stuff cost)

I'm not really money hungry, I make enough to do what I want to do and I'm not worried about buying fancy cars or whatever, I enjoy the freedom of being able to go where ever I want with out worrying about what I'm leaving behind.. It's called "FREEDOM"..
