<p>Let me clarify- There are people who love the nature of their jobs and the daily tasks that go with them. BUT I am absolutely confident in my belief that most people are NOT…and would quit if they were to win the big lottery.</p>
<p>I actually had a very fun and rewarding job working as an engineer for a game software company. It was like working in a freakin’ arcade everyday. So yes, I do believe there are really fun jobs out there.</p>
<p>Also (IMO) Ph.D level scientists who have control over their research are also sitting pretty. I can’t think of any other career where the ultimate goal of the job is learning…discovering new things. And then getting paid for it. It’s like being a student, but getting paid. It’s a great “gig” if you can get it.</p>
<p>But the learning that most other people do, is simply to get them to be more proficient in their jobs. To get them to perform a task better.</p>
