We don't want to work to make someone else rich. That doesn't mean we don't want to work. I'm commenting right now using an OS that's developed by thousands who worked on it for free.

Make the work meaningful and fulfilling, and you most likely wont even have to pay someone to do it.

For example, I love to tinker with and repair electronics. I'd probably be more than happy to diagnose a broken Xbox or TV for you once in a while, because I love doing it.

Well that's wonderful and all, but doesn't really disprove my point, we were talking about specific jobs that people were doing prior to the pandemic, not the job you wish it was. If the job was meaningful and fulfilling, you wouldn't mind doing it in the office.
