> The world does not exist to provide you with enjoyment. Why not? Why does the world exist in your opinion? In my opinion there is no reason, at least none of which we are able to understand. So why not make the best out of our time here? An enjoyable working place is especially important, because this is where we spend most of our time. > If you can make a living doing what you love to do, like many of us here, that's a fantastic added bonus but realize -- it isn't the nature of life to be able to do what you enjoy 24/7 (or 8/5). Demanding this from others is one thing, doing this yourself is another one. There were multiple stages in my life where I had to do work that I did not see a sense in and they always made me depressed and I didn't really do a good job at them even though I tried really hard. Now I do what I love and I am really good at it. That this is computer science (something that is considered valuable at this specific place in time) is a complete coincidence.
