Why Work?

I'll be completely honest here, I did not understand quite a lot of the article. This could be, though, because of the bias that I am reading it with. I feel that work has to get done, and that some things will never be desiarable. Yes, they can be made more desirable, but still, many jobs would just be a means to an end. This is, in my view, the way that the world works. There really is not much that we can do about it. I realize that reading with a bias is something that I shouldn't be doing, but I am human, and therefor imperfect.
