Oh yes, the classic "my job keeps my busy!" While working a fun job, part time and not caring about the money because you are rich...

No one ever truly thinks that all jobs are bad, it's the system that we are in, that forces us to work all the time while prioritizing practicality over happiness because some of us would literally go hungry otherwise.

Like most things in life, it's the lack of choice and the pressure to survive, that sucks the life out of most jobs.
