    I’ve been both. I hated every job I was forced to get in my 20s and 30s, but now that I’m a little more experienced I’ve finally got one of those rare interesting jobs.

    I can’t help but imagine how much more productive our economy would be if everyone had this luxury of the job they actually want. I was spending a ton of time/effort on looking busy because I hated working. Now the day just flies by and I have to manage my time carefully.

    When you take a step back and just look at the whole thing, it’s staggering how much time and effort we just fucking waste. We can start building a paradise for humans tomorrow, even while dealing with climate change. We’re not just on the brink of collapse - we’re on the brink of utopia. Humanity is ready for a change.
