Yeah, I’m slightly skeptical about claims that the head monarch of the UK doesn’t work hard. They have to do a lot of ceremonial things and voluntarily go to a bunch of other more philanthropic/PR/outreach things, even well into retirement age. I am still dubious as the value it provided but it’s definitely a kind of labor, given that it’s essentially expected.
In the past they’d not only have to do these tasks but also actually rule. Being a ruler in general sounds like a pretty sweet gig but I’d have to imagine it’s similar to being an upper level manager in that your entire day is filled with meetings and requests for meetings.
