This evening, while eating a pizza with tartufo at the pizzeria, I got this astonishing enlightenment. Let me quickly explain the following equations and the truth about the real essence of “work”!
Phi(W)=frustration at work; t=time; a=duration of your job contract in years; W(t)=work; sigma(t)=satisfaction
alpha(n)=achievement; n=number of achievements
F=force; d=displacement
From these 3 easy equations, two expected conclusions and one amazing and revolutionary postulate are obtained:
If (n) of achievements equals to zero, or if time t tends to infinite, frustration Phi(w) goes infinite. More unexpected, if the force F applied to work W is zero, frustration is zero! The postulate is: do not work and live happily!

I am sure he will agree on my incredible discovery

May I suggest a different way of looking at this problem?
Let us suppose that instead of
frustration(w)= work/satisfaction
we assume
frustration(w)= work – satisfaction(w)
where both frustration and satisfaction are functions of w. For instance, if satisfaction obtained by a certain work is equal to the energy spent for it, then no frustration will occur, which seems to be better than the result “frustration=1″ obtainable from the former equation. If work=0, then satisfaction and frustration, being functions of w, should be 0 as well (because otherwise we would have satisfaction=frustration, which is impossible), and therefore no odd conclusions can be deduced!

Dear E.B. , you see the glass half full, I see it half empty
Thanks for sharing your positive view with me.
