I recall a 15-year-old statistic that may remain valid today; namely, that the average worker hates his or her job because it's viewed as a JOB. As long as one is working a stereotypical 9 to 5 shift and does the work to get money, of course it's a job. No offense toward laid off employees, but I think it's awesome folks are smelling the coffee and if you insist, "reinventing" their realities to work somewhere doing something they love doing, that it's not merely a JOB but a PASSION.
