It doesn't seem to me workin' in a grocery would do that (at least when it comes to movies).trokanmariel wrote: ↑Wed Oct 20, 2021 4:09 pmBut what if his activities of the moment are about negating his likes?henry quirk wrote: ↑Wed Oct 20, 2021 3:29 pmJoe can be a fan of Scream while workin' in the grocery, while sittin' on the toilet, while drivin' on the highway, or while bangin' the fat chick he picked in the bar.
His activities of the moment don't negate his likes.
Anecdote time...
Many years back, as a kid, I worked in a pizzeria. I liked pizza before that (and I like it now), but, as I was workin' there, I couldn't stand pizza. Makin' pizza, deliverin' pizza, turned me off to pizza.
I can see how someone workin' in a video store (do any still exist?) might get jaded about movies.
Or: a reviewer of flicks. He might get no pleasure watchin' movies after a time.
