I am the same way, my job is not my identity. I don't want any work perks, I just want to work. It doesn't say anything about my passion, or desire to succeed.

I am the same way, my job is not my identity. I don't want any work perks, I just want to work. It doesn't say anything about my passion, or desire to succeed. It just means I have a full life outside of work, and don't desire someone replacing my activities with theirs. I've worked in a couple startups, and I doubt you could find a person who wasn't happy with my work, or ability to work with others. I just don't socialize with colleagues. I already have friends.
