Well, I'll answer the job on behalf of my roommate, because we've discussed this many times.
He works a job in a field he enjoys, but which is slowly sucking the life and happiness out of him. He works 10+ hours every day, is incredibly stressed, and gets yelled at on a daily basis. He's mentally figured out how he could clean out his office, walk out without anyone noticing and never look back many times.
BUT...he won't, because the potential financial payout is too good.
He's going to have a heart attack before the age of 40, I have no doubt.
At least he's honest, I guess.
