Is this not one of Maslow's Heirarchy of Needs?

To ask if I like to be needed is like saying "Do you like shelter? How about food and water?"

Well, being needed is at the top of the list, and as long as all of my other needs are met, then yes, I very much enjoy being needed. The social connection that exists is a powerful one.

I am feeling the last few days that I am not really needed at work. It is not a good feeling. I am therefore busting my ass to show everybody how critical I am to team success.

If you asked me if being needed was more important than water, then I would have to say no.
