And what happens to this paradigm if you don’t really love your job more than your family and friends and just work out of necessity to survive?

Only half of all Americans are “very satisfied” with their jobs.

Lower income people are less satisfied with their jobs than higher income people.

What about people who work jobs that are physically demanding where time off is literal physical rest?

This idea of work as fulfillment is highly classist IMO.

And anyway, you wouldn’t like to have a month every year to spend on your own personal coding projects that don’t become owned property of your employer? Nobody said you have to spend your time off sipping margaritas on the beach.
