I am changing my attitude on it by asking relentlessly: how is this fun?

For work the answer is: a 4 day work week helps a shit ton. I am free on Wednesday. So if I dread the workday then I am free the next day or the day after that which puts me at ease. Also, then when I am free, I am noticing that I don’t like the day much more. That gives me a powerful perspective to not blame work for when I feel unhappy.

Also, my work feels kind of easy. CRUD apps are not tje difficult beasts I studied during college.

It also helps that the founders guard work-life balance.
