Comment on what's a good answer to placate the c-suite if you're accused of lacking motivation and being unfriendly?

I just don’t think everyone is capable of being passionate about any job, or at least ones that are realistically achievable. Personally speaking every single thing I’m passionate about and brings me happiness are things hundreds of thousands of people do for free, so who would pay someone a living wage to do it? At my current job I’m paid incredibly well for someone that never got anything above a high school diploma (currently make around $22k-31k post taxes and deductions for insurance depending on the amount of hours I work and will get a raise soon once I finish my initial 90 days), but I just show up and do the work then go home. I don’t talk to anyone (it’s also not an environment for casual conversation considering you have to basically scream in somebody’s face for them to hear you) and spend my breaks and lunch alone reading a book.
