Definitely not. :)
I'm just saying that - to me - a job is just a means to some end. That end (for me) is providing for my family adequately. That I happen to enjoy what I do is an extra bonus. I'm just saying not to lose sight of why we do what we do. If you start placing too much importance on a job, you let your job define you. IMHO, it's much more empowering to remember that your job is just a tool like any other.
- xyzzyb 16y agoAgreed. My job is a means to an end, not a personal definition. I'm a husband and father first. I love the job I have now because it's just a job. I do interesting programming. I work 40, zero overtime. My time is flexible, I can come or go as I please as long as I put in the time. I can take a vacation day with zero notice. I purposefully got a job that really is "just" a job so I could not only put food on the table but be there to enjoy it as well.
