You're being negged into oblivion, but you have a point.

There is "I'm OK with my pedestrian job but I still try to do my best and actually like the people there" and "my job sucks all joy out of my life and provides me with nothing of value except money".

I have kids, but I somehow skipped the "I want to be the best"-phase and went straight to "I'll make do with whatever you give me" so nothing really changed. I actually work a bit harder now so my kids can see work is good - also to pay for their fancy shit.

Even stupid jobs can be sources of relative joy if you let them. Don't put up with abuse of any kind, though.
