If we accept the notion that hard work is good as a tool for personal development, doesn't it also follow that it would be a good idea to try and max out the work/experience curve? Ie apply 80/20 to the concept of menial, character-building drone jobs and try to capture as much low-hanging experience fruit as possible. That way you would get the necessary experience points without spending more time than necessary in those kinds of jobs.

Thoughts on this?
