No. Somebody could, in a logically consistent way, be unhappy when doing absolutely any job.
- JonnieCache 16y agoIn this case all jobs are equally bad (and equally good,) therefore the words "best job," or even the words "good job" or "bad job" can have no meaningful interpretation.
- pingswept 16y agoNo, it could be the case that someone is unhappy whenever they're working. For someone like that, the best job is one that pays a lot for a small amount of work. The lower the pay rate, the worse the job. I think that's a meaningful interpretation. In fact, I think this situation is pretty common among people in the world.
