    Why do HR people seem to think that anyone’s primary motivation for working is something other than the paycheck?

    I have absolutely loved my last three jobs. Some days at my best job didn’t even feel like work at all. But I would not keep going back if they stopped paying me.

      TBH, I could accept a lower wage (but not by much, and certainly not under minimum wage) if they offered a good work environment, reasonable hours or other niceties, but this was probably not the case

        The job I referred to as “my best job” was also the lowest-paying. Great work environment, awesome hours, decent benefits.

        But I would not have continued going there to do my job if they stopped paying me.
