People work in grey cubicals or Applebee’s because they feel like they don’t have a choice. Everyone in these jobs is unhappy, because if they believed in their ability to find happiness elsewhere they would already be gone.

I set low initial expectations at my job, automated and simplified nearly every task. I work less than 20 hours a week on average. I have time for basically all my hobbies and get to spend tons of time with my kid and wife. It may be a grey cubicle and annoying but it pays well and i can get fulfillment elsewhere. Feel like anybody trying to get fulfilling experiences from work is looking at the picture upside down
