I left my job to do more meaningful work. I took a big paycut to do it. But I guess it wasn't meaningful enough because I want to do something even more meaningful, but I can't really go any lower right now.
Is it just me or does it seem like this article is trying to teach an organization how to make work appear more meaningful, even though it is the same work and probably not actually any more meaningful, and therefore get away with paying workers less for meaningless work?️
Not only that, I didn't really see a concrete suggestion of meaning, in the sense that the article only articulates what activity marginally increases some baseline level of meaning.
I don't expect an article like this to actually define meaning, of course, but some anecdotes of what "meaning" actually is to some sample of the working population would have been more helpful than throwing around a bunch of hesitantly low-risk workplace suggestions.
