Depends on the work, I think? If it's degrading nonsense done for the nonsensical greed of others, sure. But there is no reason to assume or accept this as the only possible kind of work. Why would a doctor not feel good about all the time they spent helping patients, if they were passionate about it, for example?

Sure, you need to find a balance, for yourself and friends and family. But where work is utterly separate from being alive I think something is broken. Just consider what dogs enjoy doing most: running after stuff and biting it. You could say, doing their job, that's what makes them fucking happy. Most animals are harder to read than dogs when it comes to happiness, but I really don't see dragging anyone "dragging their feet to work" except humans, and maybe some animals that lived too close to humans, or were caged by them.
