If you're doing creative work, that work should never feel trivial - even if what you're doing is for hire or lightly intended. Even the mundane doesn't have to be trivial.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Of course it's trivial, but then most things are.
I need to feel like the work I'm doing is not necessarily important, but meaningful, at least to me, because otherwise it just becomes a day job. It just becomes factory work and I get really frustrated.

There's no sense in doing something, especially if it's a hard job, if you can't have a little fun.

To me, creative work is labor, like any other kind of labor. It's got value, and it takes your time, and it's useful to people, depending.
Simplicity makes me happy.
