Work, to me, is something I regularly do for others. When I do something for me, even if it is the same, it is a hobby or whatever. So there is no need to be sad for me.
Not all things done for others are equal. I'm quite happy to help family or a friend, or a stranger in need. But some rich guy wants to exploit my need for money to get things done for him? There's no way i can't be depressed about that, and I'm baffled by anyone who isn't. There must be something lacking in people's self respect that makes it not activate when they're exploited.
