I enjoy interesting work with polite, grounded, emotionally healthy people smarter than myself, with reasonable comp and work life balance expectations. My joy is time with loved ones and my kids, helping deserving others, and learning/sharing knowledge; work is just work, it is mostly meaningless in most contexts. It will always be there in some capacity, like a waterfall one sticks their cup in when thirsty. Have to quench your thirst, but it is not the point of living.
