Why would someone want the everyday hassle of a biological human mate, when you can have this?
No more:
I have a headache.
Not in the mood.
Get your own beer.
Do your own laundry.
Your not listening to me.
You don't care how I feel.
Do you think I look fat?
Oh, the possibilities! Sign me up.

That smile is scary...
What I do not understand, is why we need human-like robots in the first place... We need a super effective physical form for the job... If something I have learned from software development, that one size does not fit all, and human body is far from being good for a lot of jobs/environments...

For me Peter Jackson's LOTR trilogy does it. Especially King Theoden's speech before the battle of Pelennor fields.
Arise, arise, Riders of Théoden!
spear shall be shaken, shield shall be splintered,
a sword-day, a red day, ere the sun rises!
Ride now, ride now, ride! Ride for ruin and the world's ending!
Death! Death! Death!
Forth Eorlingas!
What is it for you?

No mercy here, but they do have a point. Time to pay my mortgage as well.
For me, I get low because I cannot fix a problem. I hammer it and just keep going. People look at me and wonder why it's taking so long... (they do NOT offer to help).
Look for small victories.
Last week I finally fixed a bug that had been plaguing me for 3+ years.

Sure, my mortgage, but really, several, some snarky, things, within the context of "when I feel low about work":
1. This will pass
2. Why am I getting overly personally involved in my work?
3. The people I work with are morons. Corollary: Why am I feeling responsible for their f***ups
4. Work is not everything. Find other activities that are equally, if not more so, meaningful.
In the general context of just "when I feel low":
1. There's people suffering a lot more than me. Corollary: find one and do something, even small, that concretely helps them, even if it's just getting through another day for them.
2. My cat, animals in general, nature.
3. Fantasizing about revenge.

I would say that any introspective person feels like this on occasion. After all, in the long run, very little of what we do will matter.
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

Often for me, it is not anything related to work but life in general, which will still make you not want to do anything, but we must work so need the inspiration to get going.

These are very helpful tips and activities.
