I find this concept as unrealistic as the one where poor people need to work hard to find a good paying job... The reality of our world is that most people work menial boring jobs for not much money. There are only so many people that can be pro athletes or radio DJs or run an art gallery. The jobs people desire are few and far between.

There's nothing wrong with menial jobs being a stepping stone in someone's life. I have a friend who use to work at McDonalds. After a number of years she saved enough to buy a food truck. It was very successful. Now she has a reasturant, catering business and was recently on Chopped Canada. She has the same smile on her face now as she did when she worked at McDonalds. Oh, and her manager couldn't have that bad as she ended up marrying him.
People who think they are stuck in menial jobs are really just stuck in there own negative head space. Life is what you make of it.
