What do you do that you earn six figures?

It seems like a lot of people make a lot of money and it seems like I’m missing out on something. So those of you that do, whats your occupation that pays so well?

Yikes, good luck. I’m early in my PM career still, so I’m appreciating my time being relatively unimportant without those 2600+ emails… I know it won’t last long!

LOL, yeah the email chains definitely grow exponentially as you progress in career. I just had my 23rd anniversary. I'm a senior level PM so mid-level but you end up with a good mix of impactful projects across varied tech (at least I have that in my job). The more projects, the more emails :)

Nice, congrats on the anniversary, and good luck getting back into the email slog after your vacation!
