I find this kind of comment very sad. Work is easily the least meaningful thing in my life and I never have enough to invest in the things I actually want to do because work takes up so much of it.
- slothtrop 4y agoI think this is usually a false projection. If you have the right work-life balance, work is a great asset. It provides social validation and meaning. Not everyone is a creative with an interest in pet projects. Most like to collaborate and feel useful, and aren't really invested in the big picture. You can quibble that this isn't entirely contingent on "work", but whether you're paid for it or not, the desired activity is the same.
