This. You're only convinced you should be loyal or enjoy a thing because of your pay, but that's a load of crap. You're being paid for performance, and paid more only when proven you are hard enough to replace, not for smiling more.

I don't really know what this topic is trying to say. That you should enjoy what you do? Or is it more cynical and saying that you need to kiss ass and put on a fake happy face?

This. Enjoying a job is a bonus luxury if you're lucky.

It depends on your position, relation to company, hours, pay, benefits, company.

Im partially paid to enjoy my job. People think Im a super happy and motivated and nice and positive and optimistic person at work. its the path of least resistance.

In theory, the company believes you're being paid for the privilege of dedicating your entire existence to the job.

Yup. That's why you're paid to enjoy your job.
It can be taken away for any reason (or no reason at all).
You're really not in the power to decide otherwise.

Generally D, although that can be part of the job (or a secondary consideration) with some companies which won't want you around if you don't enjoy the work or fake it convincingly.

D. As already said I'd be paid to do the job and providing I do that well that's all that matters. Most folk find fatigue in their jobs. Money probably wouldn't change their enjoyment of said job. In a ideal world enjoying ones job is more important but enjoyment doesn't pay the bills.

There's a reason companies want you to think of them as "family".

Family is free labor.

The only overlap I could see is maybe in services... where you have to at least make customers think you enjoy your job to create a pleasant experience. Otherwise, no. You are paid to tolerate it.

No; I'm paid to do my job.

I can see some jobs where you're paid to at least appear to enjoy your job, like waiting tables, etc.

In theory thats not remotely true. You're being paid to provide them labor. They use their labor to produce a product that either makes them money or saves them money. That's it. Some companies want you to be happy about the work you're doing because happy employees are good employees, but you're not being paid for the privilege of working at a company.

No. But I learned long ago that getting paid to do a job you don't enjoy is a waste of time.

Minimum wage is a job's way of saying, "if we could pay you less, we would". Now toil harder for us and like it!
