Jobs don't bring happiness. You might find laboring towards a goal satisfying, but don't confuse that feeling with job satisfaction.

My job is basically my hobby. I spend about 50 hours a week on my hobby - some of it structured for someone else, and some of it entirely for myself. The stuff for someone else is less fun, but still genuinely brings me joy.

Depends on the person and the job. Thomas Edison loved his work to the point of being essentially addicted.

Thomas Edison was a narcissistic hole, who helped kill an elephant.

Naw, I get to determine that, thanks.

How much actual power do you have in this regard?

Did you get to choose your job? Can you also choose not to have a job?
