You’re also allowed to enjoy your time at “work” and not just be a miserable slam clicker counting the seconds til you’re at home again. Just a thought.
Agreed. I've had the crappy job where I sit around trying to enjoy my Sunday but have that lingering thought in the back of my head saying "ugh, this week is gonna suck". Being a legacy airline pilot is pretty chill. Managing work/life balance is as easy as juggling with 2 balls.

I absolutely love the fact that I don't dread going to work anymore. Not hating the thought of going to work is in and of itself QOL. The L in QOL is Life, as in the entirety of your existence both at work and home. Ive known people who worked jobs they hated just because of the money. It always eventually affects your home life.
