Tons of people work jobs they don't like, instead of jobs they would prefer, because the former pays a ton better than the latter, even though they could (barely, perhaps) get by on the lower salary.
They do this because they like stuff, want prestige, and maybe want to raise a family in circumstances other than poverty.
It's not obvious to me at all that UBI at levels anyone is even half-seriously proposing would cause more than a very few people to stop working.
