But fixing issues is something I enjoy :) And I can't hang out on the beach all day on my vacation, I get bored too quickly.

That's another thing entirely

But being bored is part of the free time

Boring is good, not bad

Edit: I love it too, but when I'm bored I work on some side project (never completed one!) instead

For me it's not. Being bored makes me restless, unfulfilled.

It gives me a feeling of fulfillment if I can do a bit of work for 10 minutes and help people out.

I understand it, but there are many ways to help.

In my case I've been diagnosed in the spectrum of autism, I know it's my problem if I get easily bored, not because I'm not checking my work email while I'm on holiday.
