What seemingly bad job is actually cool?

Garbageman, you get to work alone and outside while making $100,000 a year
Teaching kindergarten English in an Asian country. You are paid to play all day, except during the two hour naptime
Truck Driver. You’re by yourself 90% of the time. No one to bother you, no one to answer to
But you have a boss, or your employer, you don't just drive around with an empty truck.
I go in and get my already loaded truck, take off and make my deliveries. All the stops are in order and mapped in a hand held device. I come back, fuel my truck when needed, punch out and go home. There are floater drivers to cover sick/personal days and vacations

Working in production in a thrift store. I wanted to get into retail because I enjoy organizing and setting stuff up. Sure, I still interact with customers but about 80% of the time I'm in the back working amongst my co-workers and unless someone is asking for assistance I can actually help them with, all I need to do is point them to the operations staff for more information. Since it's a thrift store, much of the stuff varies in price but prices are pretty cheap for the product, often. We still get 50% off on the clothing and soft accessories, 40% on things like shoes and bed and bath stuff, and 30% off on hardware. Employees are allowed to hold point membership cards to add to the perks. I got health insurance within 6 months of employment and allotted 2 weeks of vacation after a year, plus one wild card personal day of my choosing. This is also the first job where I can request to leave for an appointment during a shift and come back to work later that day, and have paid sick days.
