It’s more fun to work with people who enjoy work rather than people who work to enjoy. At least that’s my 2 cents

  I enjoy my work, but it is just that - work. I give my work 100% in good humour when I am working, but I think the expectation that I'm going to go home and do more of the same on my own time is unfair and unhealthy. No other profession expects this.

    > No other profession expects this. I don't think this is the case (anecdotal evidence from friends and family in varied professions) I think the problem is that there seems to be an expectation of knowledge of the exact technologies. I have to say that lately I have seen a lot more: X or equivalent but this might be related to devops engineer job adverts where maybe they've realised that the tools are similar enough that you can get up to speed quickly enough between them ...

  I don't know why people would enjoy work with all of the process stuff we impose on development.

    Reminds me of a snarky comment I read, "If you love doing something, keep it as a hobby or you'll begin to hate it."
