Now let’s talk about a job nobody dreams of: garbage collector. You’re lifting heavy bins at 4 AM in rain, snow, or heat. You smell terrible all day. People treat you like you’re invisible. And yet, if you stopped doing this for a week, cities would turn into literal disaster zones. It’s essential work that demands stamina and grit.
Compare that to a software developer who sits in an air-conditioned room and stresses about code bugs. Sure, mental burnout is real—but nobody is spraying you with rotten banana juice. Perspective matters, right?
