I hated most of my schooling and I have no illusions about that. But the OP has a kind of reverse nostalgia which is just as deceiving as it's positive counterpart. Many people enjoyed school. Some people had better or worse school cultures. My kids school is like a Hippy paradise compared to what I experienced and of course they like it and miss it.

The kinds of things that sucked to me (sit still and listen for hours), there might be additional things or other stuff that sucked to others (slow to learn reading, math, etc.). The format didn't suit me, and another format would be beneficial. Learning is personal, and school having just one format aside private/experimental schools, absolutely sucks. What would suck more would be no school, or weed-school (get high on weed). Work is a bit different. Sometimes there are interesting projects and you get engrossed in work, which also shouldn't take over too much of your life. Other times, the politics and fakery absolutely sucks. I don't think we can expect things to not suck at all, ever.
