Maybe I misinterpreted oc, but I understood that « choosing what to work on » was about choosing precisely what project you want to work on and not just doing the job you wanted but on the project of your boss.
Because that is really rare and close to impossible if you are not an entrepreneur : I have. personally never ever worked on a really interesting project, and tbh, the few times I switched jobs following my attraction to the product, it went terribly wrong.
I’m not saying that you can’t be happy and fulfilled in this situation : my current company is really nice and I’m happy to be paid correctly to do what I wanted to do, but our products are extremely boring and I would never choose to work on my current project if I had a true open choice. And I don’t think I’m the exception on this one.
