Has your job ruined anything for you?

I work in a flower nursery and take care of plants. Now I've been doing this a year, when I go to someone's house, the first thing I notice are houseplants. I pluck them. I see a picture with flowers, I have to know what they are. The first thing I notice about a house is the window boxes. I can't just enjoy flowers anymore. I have this obsession with needing to know what they are and making sure they're properly maintained.

Making something you love into a job is always the best way to ensure that you end up hating it.

@ReallyTallDwarf: I love my job. I just don't love that it's made me into an obsessive maniac.

Give it time. A few more years and it will be a different story.
