Imagine being a full time graduate student with a full time job. It might sound impossible to do both at the same time, but the person in this story shares his secret for making it work.

I’m not sure his former employer would like to know how he pulled this off, but it doesn’t seem that he has any regrets about what he did.

Let’s read the whole story.

I was a night auditor for years and I never did my job

I loved working at hotels in my youth because I had absolute authority when I was alone and I used it to study my graduate degree while I worked 40 hours a week and studied full time.

My job was almost always done by the time I got there.

I’d speak to maybe 3 people all night and because I’d get along with people they’d constantly shout me out.

When anyone called we were magically sold out.

He ate well too.

My predecessor accidentally gave away 1000’s of dollars of snacks and drinks in a scam so I padded my pathetic food budget with free monsters, chips, anything that could get me a free meal.

And us hotel workers are treated well.  Free food, good perks.

I did this from 25-30. I really recommend it if you want a job that has pretty much no oversight.

I sure do know how to run a auditing updating though.

Sounds like he got paid to do nothing except eat free snacks!

Let’s see how Reddit reacted to this story.

This person had the same job.

Another person was a night auditor.

This person’s friend basically got paid to sleep.

But sometimes there is actual work to do.

Seriously, how DO you get a job like this???

Talk about an easy job!
