    I imagine very few of us work a job we actually like doing more than spending time with family and friends. That seems unhealthy by definition, somehow.

      Right. I actually like my job and I appreciate that is a rare occurrence these days. But I also like my private life. If I had a choice I still would spend more time on what I do in my private life than in my job, since right now the balance is still heavily on the job side (if we exclude sleeping since well, I don’t get the choice to do that at my job).

        Fully agree. Same situation. I have a job I actually enjoy doing. If I was in prison being forced to do what I do, I would have fun. But I’d still want to be with my family more and have free time with them. I give more of my time to my work than my family and that’s pretty fucked up if you think about it. You spend more time with colleagues than you do with your family, going through life. So bad, so wrong.
