Thank you Will for sharing this. I love these RSAnimate videos, at least of the ones I have seen. The topic especially resounds for me, because at least anecdotally I can verify it with everyone "skilled" worker I know dissatisfied with their work despite being paid extremely well, and similar friends who are paid dirt but love it as a result of the autonomy and mastery available. Even my own work could be considerably more rewarding if they'd allow more autonomy and mastery. As is, they're paying me stupidly well but I have no incentive to do anything more than the bare minimum required.
