When I started my current job as a cleaner, I continually showed eagerness and excitement to learn new things, and maintained a positive attitude always. Whenever I was asked what I thought of the job or how I was going with things, I said that I really loved what I was doing and that I was happy with the work (which admittedly I was, and mostly still am).
But the other day, one of the managers walking past me asked “still loving the job?” and I responded immediately “yeah 100%!”, but it irked me as like a trap. Like, if you say no to that question, you’d get looked down upon. Even though you haven’t done anything wrong! And most people don’t absolutely love their jobs! This question just made me so anxious and I’ve been wondering about it for a few days now.
What do you guys think? Does this sound like a trick/manipulative question? Am I overthinking an innocent query?
