once i was in a bar in South Florida and talked to a random guy. He owned a small business mowing city lawns and gardening. He was very heavy so in my mind I couldn't understand how someone that's always working physically outdoor can be this fat. (sorry there aren't any other word in my small English vocabulary pool). It turns out when i told him i'm a software engineer, to my surprise he told me he used to be a DBA and couldn't take this lifestyle any longer and wanted to be outdoors. He successfully transitioned.
