Your desired job attributes.

I'm going to post several pairs of attributes, and if you are interested in participating, pick your preferred option out of each pair. (In one case there are three options rather than a pair, so don't panic and run away when you see that one.)

I recognize that there's a continuum in each pair instead of just the two ends that I display. Pick the option that is closest to your preference even if you're sorely tempted to say something like "I want the job that is 60% A and 40% B. You can add those nuances as your own self-authored post within the thread.

Hit the time clock now and wait for the poll to come up. It'll take a few minutes.

I just want to get paid very well for doing very little. Apparently that is too damn much to ask for though.

love my new job. it's crazy busy; diferent problems to solve each day; have to work with multiple groups to get things resolved; schedules/deadlines. pretty much self-sufficient. given empowerment to make decsions w/out fear of being 'wrong'

it's great.

I'm a little surprised at the breakdown of constant workload versus seasonal workload. I picked constant, but I could see some advantages of working your tail off during a busy season and then having a low period where you can relax a bit.
