I take from that that if you are doing a boring job that gives you no compensation for the time you spend there (something better than just - maybe even little - money) - you nevertheless have an obligation to feel satisfied and be happy.

Arrogance on side of the company. I personally never liked to work in jobs that I needed to do just because of the money, but had to accept such arrangements for some time. But I also accepted arrangements were I worked unpayed - because the job gave me something that meant more for me than money.

If you need to work in a bad job only because you need the money, then you really are a poor bastard and every minute of working time feels like an hour for you. That is a lot of seconds-counting over one day's shift.
BINGO!

I work for a grocery and while Management is respectful the customers are growing more and more arrogant by the day.

Thus what started as a job that went by quickly and was fun turned into one where time drags on and breaks the spirit.

One thing that I look forward to with robots taking over the workforce is that these arrogant customers will have nobody to abuse freely anymore.

Things are bad enough for me. I can hardly image what it is like for someone to be in a similar position full time.

Oh and BTW for you "Get an education bums!" folks that want to use such a reply. You obviously have no idea what coming home with a broken spirit is like. And more and more of these folks in such a position ARE educated! Even at times doctorates! Who often don't get hired because they are considered overqualified..

This company is getting one hell of a bad press run here.
