depends on the job and why you're doing it. a lot of people are working jobs they hate to provide for people they love, who they don't feel loved by. and that's some fucked up shit.

what's weird as a dude, i find personally, is that if you aren't suffering for your job, you're considered an underachieving. I don't get it. there is a weird fetishization that men must be miserable at their jobs, or if they love their work, they must be working 80 hours a week at it.

i work my 35 hours, my bills are paid, i am enjoying life... don't see why this is so offensive to folks.
