What is it like to work a job you actually love/enjoy?
I love to code but I don't like to work in projects to sustain web structures used by niggers like you.
I'd like to know
No one knows. Anyone who says otherwise is coping hard.
I know some people who have turned their hobby into a profession, and the majority experience burnout pretty quickly.
is it even possible to survive while working 40 hrs a week for over 50 years? how do people cope. soulless meat robots i suppose. what percent of the human population is actually sentient. maybe this is just my 3rd world dystopian american perspective but no signs of life here
Thats just a meme bro.
This. Having a "dream job" is just propaganda fed to children, nobody has a dream job.
Even if you own your own business there's shitty parts that still make you miserable.
I remember the last job I had (over 10 years ago) I would go to lunch with a number of coworkers everyday, one day I asked them "does anyone actually like their job?" (I would openly admit I hate my job). Anyway the coping was something to behold, especially from the women. I was the first one out of the group to quit, and one of the girls that coped the hardest about how she loved her job so much quit a couple years after.
cope. can u imagine someone pulling this face at ur average wagecuck job? dream jobs exist, but they are a privilege of a few.
you do what you want and you get paid for it
I don't know, I work in an alienating office making 300k a year. Sometimes I wish I was a Chad forklifter.
If you're a professional athlete you still have to cuck to regulations/sponsors.
>they are a privilege of a few.
They're just a privilege if said person worked as a wagie or something shittier at some point before joining their "privilege job". Otherwise, how can they even begin to comprehend at an empirical level?
I'm lucky to be truly passionate about my job, but then I remember that I spent 40% of my last 3 paychecks on DCAing LINK
Not my dream job but I enjoy bartending. Make great drinks and do occasionally dinner service at a good restaurant. Guessed are well mannered so not much bullshit. Make good side hustle connections, get my socializing fix, and don’t waste away my money on the weekends. Most coworkers are cool so that helps too. Dream job, no, but I have become financially independent because of it and it has paid me a lot more than prior jobs.
those jobs aren't without risk and politics. Your sponsors will coerce you to make decisions against your own values, and you can easily get an injury that could end your career at any moment.
It's great until you have to give it up. I worked in fish science and it was soulful work, the boat gliding across the lake from site to site with the pelicans flying along side you as you eat a sandwitch. Or your doing night shocking and your passing a box of taco bell burritos around with your mates as you switch off netting fish. The pay was shit though so ended up getting a new job.
What's it like to enjoy something?
it’s impossible
even with any fun hobbies you may have doing it 8 hours per day would make you insane
crypto used to be my hobby, now I work for a crypto company, wfh every day, and make 56k / year on my first year. life is good. all I do is produce banger crypto content. it is very fulfilling for the time being. eventually I plan to become a Quant analyst.
