Good chat today with @sarahurtadop about work/work-life balance — really liked her framing: "not like a job, more like a purpose." It's generally possible to find some purpose in your work, but all the better if you can build bill-paying work out of what feels like your purpose

Developing some area of expertise relevant to the customers I was seeing every day made my job tolerable, and at times very happy (like when a customer would report that the food allergy I suspected seemed to have been abated by the food I recommended)

Sometimes you have to find purpose in the work you have — when you do that, you'll be better at your job and happier to do it. But don't lose sight of the very real possibility that the things most important to you can also feed you, and it's your task to figure out how. :)
