I'm not making light of your job. It's all a matter of perception. 

One of my brothers opened a "craft beer and eatery" 3 years ago. He had 2
partners at the time.  I don't think either is involved anymore, judging by
the change in menu.It's open 6 days a week. He also does a lot of social
media promotion of other local food establishments, and since the whole Covid
situation, he's brought lunches to different hospitals, clinics, testing
stations for the Staff.  

The average person would think he was living his dream.  I know how hard he
works to manage all of that and his family.

I may not know everything involved in research science, but it's doubtful
that it's all cushy either.
