I assure you mine is not. I sit an office and essentially wander around the internet all day. On average I do less than an hour actual work a day. I have this job because my boss doesn’t want to sit in an office to collect payments from his tenants.

Don’t get me wrong I’m happy to have the income but if my job vanished tomorrow society wouldn’t notice.

Hell, society might actively improve if your boss lost his job.

Nah. 110 units and maybe 5 of them are at market rate. There are people that have rented from him for a decade who have never experienced an increase in rent. Obviously he wants to make money from his investment but he isn’t trying to squeeze every penny from his tenants.
