Not all working people find their job fully satisfying and happy at the same time. That's a rare combinations that you'll find from individual. Not too many are the likes of Steve Jobs or Bill Gates for instance. I'd say two-third of workers aren't fully satisfied or happy because either OP not fully compensated, unappreciated by coworkers/bosses, worked long hours, too much time away from family, long commute, etc. In fact, people would rather work for themselves than take orders if they can help it.
Take myself as an example, I worked because I have to pay bills not because I'm happy of working. Being happy or going to work everyday is an individual choice. It's not to say that I don't like my job or unsatisfied or unhappy either. I'm actually satisfied at my job since I personally think I am paid well for what I do and don't do; not because of what my Union thinks I am worth. I worked for my family, benefits, and pension. Do I have the same passion of working with the likes of Steve Jobs or Bill Gates. NO! I don't have the near passion of those guys, holds, or smarts. They worked because they enjoy it and that's what makes them very happy, not because of money. Those are rare characteristics you'll find few and far between. I'm just the opposite, just like an "ant worker" trying to feed the queen. Put in my 8 hours and go home by 4 every day. That's when I'm truly comes alive seeing my kids and wife. That's Happiness.
