Does anyone actually work at a company because they do interesting stuff, rather than option terms?
- twicetwice 4y agoI do interesting stuff in my free time. I make money in my work time. Not quite really—I do enjoy my work and my time at my job, and I would sacrifice some compensation to work at a more interesting/meaningful/fun company. I don't price the enjoyment of 50% of my waking hours at zero, of course. But my primary purpose in working a job is making money, and I don't think that's anything to be ashamed about. I want to buy a house one day.
- alfiedotwtf 4y agoOk, that's a good take. To be honest, I've never thought about it like that. Thanks for the perspective.

- jokethrowaway 4y agoNo, but occasionally you get something interesting at work. Very rarely. 99% it's all implement this API route or implement this react component. Waste of time, but pays well and will let you retire early.
