I don't get this.

When I was unhappy at my last job I was way less productive.

Now I'm enjoying my new job and spend my time solving real technical problems and building real projects.

I was considering taking a pay cut just to leave my last job it had gotten so toxic. You can pay employees less if they're otherwise satisfied.

It doesn't make sense, but here we are. We are all individuals with our own strengths and weaknesses, yet workers are considered fungible. If you are dissatisfied and quit, you'll just be replaced by someone else.
