Yeah, it's actually impossible to have a job that you enjoy, or a profession that makes you feel like you're doing something important. We've all been gaslit by the capitalist money machine, and the professional pride we feel when we complete a project is just a coping mechanism. The only reason we spend years training, often since childhood, is the constant crushing threat of starvation. Wake up, sheeple!

For some people, having a well-paying job or a career with advancement opportunities is a vital part of a fulfilling life. You can't deny that.
