Colossians 3:23
And whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men,Ecclesiastes 9:10
Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might; for there is no work, nor plan, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in Sheol, where you are going.1 Thessalonians 5:18
In everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus toward you.Ephesians 6:7
with good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men;Colossians 3:12-13
Put on therefore, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, a heart of compassion, kindness, lowliness, humility, and perseverance; bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, if any man has a complaint against any; even as Christ forgave you, so you also do.- You posted all that and you forgot to post the one about the centurion being satisfied with his daily pay. It's in one of the four gospels.cherub

Love my job.
Spent 20 years in a studio, now I'm jumping from studio to studio since 2 years.
Stepping out of the comfort zone all the time.
Choosing project based on the challenges.Most of the time coworkers are nice , but never spend enough time somewhere to be able to bond since two years.
I feel like a mercenary.

Work is a means not an end.

"In fact we’ve seen work and leisure swap attributes. Qualified jobs take on the values of creativity and autonomy. Desirable work has become that which allows personal fulfilment. But when you have a good quality job, you work more. As leisure time shrinks, we try to increase its intensity by projecting onto it the values once associated with work: leisure must pay off, teach us something, be renewed, have a degree of uncertainty... In a way, work and its gratifications suck the life out of leisure, and vice versa. This confusion is a curse for those who feel exploited at work."

I'm convinced there's a correlation between people that enjoy their job and people that enjoy SNL.

sometimes easy, sometimes exhausting and sometimes frustrating. That's probably what everyone would say. I never think of it as just a paycheck.Do you like your coworkers?
Yes, but it's easier for me being completely remote.How long do until you switch jobs?

Nothing is forever, especially in this industry.
