This line never made sense. Does anyone WANT to work? I don't think most want to spend majority of their life making someone else money. Like I'm sure some people find fulfillment in their jobs but for most who are just cogs in a machine, pretty sure they don't want to work. They HAVE to work to make a living.

I sure would love to not work and focus on building/maintaining communities, a job in public works would be ideal but they don't pay enough and require too much.

I'm a nurse (in Europe), and I do have a lot of fun at work. Sure, it can be hard or a grind sometimes, but at the end of 95% of my shifts I feel satisfied that I helped people. The atmosphere is good among colleagues and we have a killer union. It's ridiculous how secure my position is.

All in all, I truly enjoy what I do and after a long period of absence from work, whether it was to study, get better during illness or simply after a week or two off, I long to work again; help people; have a laugh with my colleagues.

Not all jobs are the same and I know that, I'm just lucky to be doing 'my dream job' and that I found it early in life.
