I think I would really enjoy being a developer advocate for a company, if it was a product I believed in.

Or maybe a position where I help large non-tech companies run their IT using modern methods. A lot of companies in sectors like finance have sluggish IT with codebases from deprecated technologies, and outdated methodologies because the top players at the company are in a slower business, and as a result their IT department fails to keep up with the best practices and standards that pure tech companies strive to adopt.

I once had a job where I got to sleep on piles of Persian rugs. Admittedly I wasn't supposed to do this, but if I positioned the security cameras just so, it worked out nicely. Most expensive bed ever.
