If it was fun, they'd call it "play" and you'd have to pay them. Build some nice tall solid boundaries around your time and find something fun and interesting to do with the time you aren't earning a paycheck. Learn to play the guitar. Take a cooking class. Coach a little league baseball team. Don't expect so much of your job. It's just a job. If the people are OK and the benefits are good, give them a good day's work for a good day's pay and then go live your life.
Thanks to one of those ads, I put two and two together and came up with "High Blood Pressure." Tested the hypothesis and it was correct. Going to the doctor early next week.
While I think the ads probably do more harm than good overall, anything that gets you thinking about your health and talking to a doctor about problems is probably not a bad thing entirely.
