Is having a job we love a right or a privilege?

- to read...

 So, I talked about how having a job we love is a right, not a privilege but there are many people who push back and say to me, "Yeah but having a job you love really is a luxury and a lot of people just need a job to survive." 



At some level everybody needs a job to survive and regardless of what our needs are and where we work, wouldn't we rather work for companies that care about us as human beings? A company doesn't have to be glamorous for us to love the work.



There are many companies that do glamorous things that are terrible places to work and there are lots of companies that do some pretty mundane things that just make some random widget, that are wonderful places to work. 



This is what my whole movement is about. I want to create change, I want to drive change in the business world, so that everyone, regardless of what our income is, regardless of what we're making, regardless what our position. 



Inside the organization is, that every single one of us gets to work at a place where we feel that people view us and treat us like human beings rather than some disposable thing on a financial statement. 



So, to all those people who say, "Yeah but some people just need a job to survive." I say, absolutely. And they should have the opportunity to work in a place that they love going to work also.
