I don't buy this premise. You get paid to work because your work creates value for someone. Whether you have fun doing the work is quite irrelevant.
You could argue people would be willing to work for less if it was fun and you would have a point. But the idea that the other party is paying you to work because it is unfun is bonkers.

They usually have to pay you for a variety of reasons: - It's not so much fun that you're willing to do it for free - You can't afford to do it for free even if you would be willing to do so in principle - Someone else is willing to pay you to do more or less the same thing
