I stopped hating my work at around $100k AND good boss/coworkers. Haven’t gotten around to “enjoy” yet but it’s not bad. I don’t dread coming to work, and I feel more or less content. I even work harder than I need to a lot of the time.
So in your mind what’s a bullshit job, and how would another system mean such jobs aren’t required? Would it mean there’s more non-bullshit jobs for people to do?

Generally, but not always, the difference is the same as the difference between a job and a career.
Some people really do like their jobs though. Just need to hunt around for one you like.
For me, it was when I began my career
