Ok, so you like work. Does that mean you only like work that other people tell you to do? Hobbies are work that you do because you want to, not because you have to.You can have an extremely busy and fulfilling life doing work in exactly the way you like to do it, with no taskmaster. There are plenty of people who 'retire' and do this.
- burnished 5y agoIt seems like you maybe took their personal preference as an attack or command?
- idiotsecant 5y agoYes, sorry this is definitely not fully directed at parent post. I was in fact having an actual conversation with my real life parent recently in which they expressed a similar sentiment and it is baffling to me. Parent post, more politely - can you explain whether you would consider self-directed work to be valid 'work' or not? If not, why? Legitimately trying to understand.
