Just curious, how many people in this day and age feel like their job genuinely defines them and their identity as an individual, or how many are just in their job ultimately because it is a means to pay the bills?

Should we be defining ourselves by our job or the things that fulfil us? Presuming these aren't mutually exclusive things.

Appreciate there are shades of grey and not everybody will feel the same.

If you can't tell I have a pretty dull corporate job, I don't feel like it defines me but it enables me to do the things that really matter to me in life. I would much rather be known as somebody that enjoys holidays, family time, my dog and good food than Dave the Admin worker.
