Idk, depends on what tickles your fancy I guess. But I have never had a job where there's nothing fun or interesting. It can't all just be that mundane and easy

Idk, depends on what tickles your fancy I guess. But I have never had a job where there's nothing fun or interesting. It can't all just be that mundane and easy?
Personally I find joy in two different settings
- the hard problems, where I have to go for a walk around the apartment, and think about it when I shover. These are rare.
- putting on some music, pouring myself some coffee, and just coding up something relatively easy while in the flow. Making something which did not exist before.
- tock 3y agoI do find some joy building hard stuff. But if I didn't need the money I really wouldn't work. When I fancy hard work I'll just contribute to OSS.
- sersi 3y ago9 months ago I early retired (I'm in my 40s)... I've just decided to find a new job because I'm bored. Opensource is fun and I did contribute somewhat but I find that working on an interesting problem in a team is just fun and I missed it.
- tock 3y agoMy Dad actually had the same problem when he retired. Took him a few years to get out of it and find other things to do. It's weird because he was always stressed out when working. But the lack of stress made him believe he was worthless :/
