The second it that I should be proud of my job because I'm doing something I don't want to do, but I have to do it - and that's essentially what it's like to be an adult.

This lad gets it.

Absolutely. I'm a systems engineer and project manager. I hate my job, but gotta do it. The worst day doing this is better than the days when I had to scrub grills, clean bathrooms, pump gas, or serve food at the ballpark stadium. I never look down my nose at low-salaried workers, I respect them for doing a job they have to do in order to survive. There's some high-paid whiners in the office who never did "real" work and I don't respect them.
