I'm of two minds on this. Certainly it's important people find enjoyment in the day-to-day reality of their job. Unhappy people don't write good code in any language. But I honestly do thing people can have too much fun writing code. We've all fallen in love with something we've written even though it might not have been the simplest or most understandable or idiomatically sound.
Writing Python is fun. But that joy can cloud your judgement, and if we are to consider ourselves professional, we have to look beyond just that and make decisions based on our employers best interest. Sometimes that might be Python, but in my experience, quite often that's boring old Java.
