if you went for guaranteed salary, you value peace of mind over exciting, or meaningful work, anyway, and you acted upon that, maybe for your family or whatever

you can find meaning in things other than work anyway

it might seem a bit extremist, but if a job for which you are not overqualified is not on the level of the polio vaccine, insulin, penicillin, glass lenses, the wheel, etc. you know, "changing the course of human history"-level, then what does it matter what the job is anyway?
