Absolutely, I know the danger of the way I framed it is that somebody would regard enjoyable work as not being worth paying.

There is always a danger that somebody uses an idea one pushes for negative purposes. To use it to deprive workers of benefits and reckognition.

My hope with this piece was not to belittle, marginalize or trivialize the work that people do while enjoying it.

My hope was that people could show more respect towards those who do a lot of badly paid lowskill jobs and who work many hours and get very exhausted yet never get ahead.

I think it is unfortunate that these people get brushes off as "You are not working hard enough, if you did you would be an engineer, doctor, lawyer, manager" or whatever.

I just want to get across the idea that you can indeed work hard and make many sacrifices withouot turning into a big financial success in life.

Success in this world is simply not down to how hard you have worked. So much is down to how you got raise, opportunities you got, your talents, talents and opportunities.

And I hope this take can be a benefit also to people with well paid office jobs and careers. Because even those of us who have these kinds of jobs can hit upon hard times where we are not getting anywhere and where life is actually pretty hard.

How much you sacrifice or struggle is not a clear expression of how much you get ahead. I think I advanced most in my career in times where I was the most happy, driven and enjoyed my work the most.

Ultimately the hope was to promote compassion rather than give people new ideas for how to put each other down. But I guess any idea could be abused. I have seen that too many times.
