You know why they pay you more for indoor work, because indoor work gives you emotional and mental injuries that are much more dangerous

Doesn't injure me in the slightest, any more than running on well conditioned legs injures them.

They pay me more because if they didn't, I'd go work outside. An employer is purchasing your willingness or ability to do a job.

If you LOVE diving, be an amateur, a word that comes from the Italian amore - an amateur is one who does something because he loves it. A pro is someone who does something BECAUSE they pay him.

At least when you are working for free you get a lot more control over what you do and the shop owner knows that if he doesn't keep the work enjoyable you will be gone.

BINGO!!
