Depends on the salary. Could I work slightly harder and make/save more money so I can retire even faster?

You are lazy and unambitious to think people want no challenge, motivation, or interesting things to do at work. Important careers are filled with danger, and reward, nothing creative or interesting was made with your attitude topic creator.

Im not lazy or unambitious at all. In fact everyone that knows me well know that I work my ass off.

Its just that in some ways I value job stability more than bigger bucks. Especially with a family to feed. It would be hard to risk being jobless in my case.

Easy jobs sound dreadful. I'd rather do something challenging because time drags on for me if I'm not doing a lot of work or something challenging.

This. The government workers in my country are extremely underpaid, especially considering that they have one of the largest workloads in the country.
