Then I agreed with most comments saying that life is much more than work.
But in the end it's probably more complicated than one or the other.
In school we are taught that everything we will do is for work. In most education system (except few countries) we are never given the opportunity to discover stuff just for the sake of it, or express our passions freely.
Everything we do is graded and our performance is judged in every topics we learn. Creativity is only rewarded at the beginning of our life (<7 years old) then it's about learning skills to have a job.
You can have side projects, side activities, but they are barely looked upon; unless it can become a job (professional: sport, music, etc...).
- 21723 4y agoOne of the reasons the Soviet system had so many unpleasant years is that it was a system of economic totalitarianism. If Stalin wanted a road built in Siberia, he would make sure it happened. Your whole life belonged to the economy; people grew to resent that. We also live under economic totalitarianism. The reptilians at Davos decide what work you're allowed to do, where you're allowed to work, what kind of friendship circle you will be able to maintain, and everything else. If the self-appointed "jawb creators" decided to create more jawbs in eastern Wyoming (to build "performance improvement" camps, let's say) then you are expected to "move where the jobs are"--at your expense, of course.
