Well this is depressing to read, especially this bit: "The sweet spot is somewhere between "I don't hate it" and "I kind of like it". You can learn to like something if you do it long enough."
It seems like a great way to waste 40 hours of your life every week.
- m4x 6y ago> It seems like a great way to waste 40 hours of your life every week. This seems like the more depressing take to me. Most people don't have the good fortune to work in jobs they truly love - yet many of those jobs are still important and not at all a waste of your life. To take an extreme example, most rubbish collectors probably dislike their job. Yet doing it provides an important service to society. I would never tell the person who takes my trash away that their efforts are a waste of their life...
