It saddens me the fact that there are people out there wanting to do more work.

The game is rigged. Do nothing and get paid.

Agree with you but depends on where someone work. It's rare but some work are undeniably positive to the society.

Have you been watching me at work?

I wouldn't be in the field if I didn't enjoy the work.

However I've positioned myself to make sure no work is ever unpaid, unless it's for my own future startup idea.
