Where I'm from (southern Europe) my experience is this is far from true. Most people work as a means to an end, and often look for ways to skimp on it.
Sure, people might say "I like my job", with the implicit concession that they indeed need a job to live. If they could keep the same lifestyle without a job, I doubt most of them would keep doing what they do.
- Gigachad 3y agoI think people benefit from doing things they don't like in moderation. Lots of people don't enjoy grinding away at the gym, but they enjoy the results they get. But those results would be devalued if it wasn't for the grind it took to get them. It's like cheating in a video game, there might be one part that's really hard and you really just want to get past it, if you grind away and eventually succeed, it's far more rewarding than if you use cheats to skip it.
