53 sats \ 8 replies \ @Fabs OP 6 Sep \ parent \ on: Who Can Explain To Me The Point Of Work In The Modern Age? ideasfromtheedge
Work can be the most interesting, enjoyable, and fulfilling part of your life. It's true. I have experienced it myself.
That's something I've yet to experience, and most likely never will; It's a pure necessity to me, and it has been like that since I started working.

It's not easy to find that situation, I guess. I have also had my share of boring, meaningless jobs that I couldn't wait to quit. I bet @k00b enjoys working on SN the vast majority of the time.

most likely never will
That's your first problem: your mindset. It's a self-fulfilling prophecy. You need to keep looking.
and it has been like that since I started working.
How old are you if you don't mind asking? You can give a range.
