New job theory

Brian had an inspiring post today about work places and the general grind we all face if we want to make a living...it should be different. I think we are going about this all wrong! I think jobs should pay more so that you could work for 3 months...make enough to live for the next 6, then when you run out of money, get another job for 3 months. That would rock! There would always be people working and taking time off so there would always be someone there to do the job. You could try out a lot of different jobs that way too. So if you got a job that sucked you would only be stuck there for 3 months...but if you got one you really liked you could remember to join up with that one at the end of your 6 months (or when you run out of money).
Think how much more productive people would be if they knew they could just work for 3 months and then do whatever they felt like doing for 6 months at a time...
I would be able to travel and fix up my house and play Star Wars Galaxies as much as I want! And just think of the time you would have to spend with your family. For those that have children, it would not longer be a question of whether you're going to stay at home with your kids, you could! Childcare costs could be greatly reduced. If you're married, you could possibly even go longer between working because you would have the extra income from your spouse.
Oh the possibilities...I should have my own country...
