A lot of fun things are not as fun when they are your job. Similar stories about when people turn a hobby into a business, and it is not quite as fun.
On another note, I remember reading an article on the "triangle" player in the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. On the surface, her job seems kind of easy and funny, but she was a highly trained musician. I am guessing she also did other precussion instruments but they focused on her time as teh triangle player.
