i actually enjoy purposeful work, as long as i'm fairly-compensated for it. i think most people do.
i believe most people would work, at least most of the time, if they could find a job they liked and were paid fairly.
Honestly, I'd imagine there'd be a line of people for washing dishes if it paid 80k with benefits. Check in, clean some stuff, go home?
I dont think cleaning dishes would be very fulfilling. I can see something like building things people need would be a much more satisfying work.
Fortunately, not everyone has the same interests. I don't really like cooking, but plenty of people love it enough to make it their life's work.
Similarly, I know plenty of people who genuinely enjoy cleaning. I don't know if they'd want to make it their life ambition, but with a solid paycheck and plenty of time to think, I doubt you'd have a hard time filling the position.
I'd do it in a heartbeat if I was unemployed.
