Does she find that task enjoyable and fulfilling? If not, it's bullshit.
And if bet money on it NOT being enjoyable and fulfilling. Humans almost universally hate being cogs doing the same repetitive trivial action over and over.
- oldsecondhand 3y agoDo janitors find their job enjoyable and fulfilling? Probably not. Their job is still important for the functioning of society, so I wouldn't call it bullshit.
- JohnFen 3y agoI was a janitor for a long time in my younger years, and I actually did find it enjoyable and fulfilling. Just sayin'.
- ethbr1 3y agoWhat did you enjoy about it? Curious!
- JohnFen 3y agoI enjoyed that what I did made a real impact on people, I enjoyed the sense of satisfaction from making a space nice again, and I enjoyed that it wasn't intellectually demanding, which gave me plenty of time every workday to think about hard programming problems. There's a real sense of accomplishment in it, and it's nice that people can immediately see and enjoy the results of your hard work. There's also something about doing manual labor that is satisfying. And I enjoyed being "invisible" around people who used the spaces I cleaned. You usually don't exist, so people tend to continue to speak to each other as if nobody else is listening. I learned a lot about people that way.
