[quote=Anonymous]The opposite of striver/grinder is entitled. We are supposed to believe that everyone should follow our passions, and if it should come to pass that we find ourselves biglaw partners, surgeons, or in finance that it was because we always loved debate, or anatomy, or perhaps math and that we simply did what seemed reasonable at the time and it came to pass that we landed first in prestigious universities, then graduate schools, and then a succession of steps of increasing “responsibility” on the career ladder. Of course the money is pretty good, but obviously that wasn’t what I was thinking about at the time… When did work become unseemly? This country used to celebrate those who made the most they could of themselves. [/quote]
