Are you being argumentative for the sake of it?

The statement was that someone had a really bad day.

The implication that people are driven by money and nothing else, or even that they have no right to feel like they had a bad day if they were paid, is absurd.

Nobody is saying that you should be sympathetic. It’s just an interesting comment: An interesting thing to think about. A worthwhile contribution to the conversation. This was someone’s very bad ending to a very long project.




Ok, true. It was a bad day.
