Is it normal to dislike work?

Yep.Totally normal

Yes, it’s normal to dislike work, or at least parts of it. A paycheck doesn’t require you to find your job meaningful or fun.

Lots of people work mainly because they need to pay the bills, not because they’d do the job for free. Even people who like their careers can dislike the routine, the commute, a particular boss, or Monday mornings with impressive consistency.

It’s worth noticing whether you dislike work in general or whether your current job is draining you in a specific way. If you dread every shift or feel miserable most of the time, that doesn’t mean you’re lazy; it may be a sign that something about the job needs to change.
