This is awesome! 
I came across this on one of my news sites before. It was pretty awesome.
Well, I think I found an idea that might work for me in the long run job-wise.
Provided I can find a provider, I might take up some semi-freelance landscaping duty. You know, get out of the cave of my old job (putting in my 2 weeks while at it), get some physical labor in, and some natural sunlight and not require a damn uniform. Plus, I need the exercise. I'm really out of shape, and I might as well kill two birds with one stone.
While at it, if I can negotiate a sort of reliable/predictable schedule (and it pays well), I could get a more proper lineup with my other job I would be doing which would be actual freelance graphic design work. And it would be funded as well.
With my current job, doing the freelance graphic design just wouldn't work out. My schedule is too chaotic and unpredictable to work with. I can't do anything with it. Plus, most of my scheduling is almost non-negotiable anyway. Sort of a curse for being too damn good at my job, and obligatorily nice while at it (It starts off as favors, and then drifts into screw-over territory with a "nice" tone upon request. Bullshit. I'm familiar with being taken advantage of with a smile. Not gonna work this time.).
Alternatively, I can try and find a surf shop where I won't be in a service industry that serves food at least (unlike my last 3 jobs, including current). So far, I'm liking the landscaping prospect. Provided I can find a good provider that pays well and fairly, and the work isn't too brutal. I mean, I'm used to doing landscaping around the house (and sometimes it gets really bad with how our yard gets sometimes), let's just hope some people we would work for don't let things get hideously out of hand. At least on the bright side, unlike the housework, I would get paid for it. Extra for summer according to what I heard from my sisters with their experience in that field. Plus, if I can line things up between jobs well enough, I should be able to accrue enough graphic design experience so I can migrate to a career with a more full-time setup with doing design work.
Finally, I have a plan for life that shouldn't have any likely faults in it. The timing seems appropriate enough. Added bonus, doing landscaping ought to reset my circadian rhythm sleep-wise. It's one thing to be a night owl, but until almost 5-6AM is going a little too far.
