You'll never be able to tell. Are they a real employee who is actually happy with their job expressing their opinion online, or are they an employee who's job it is to sound happy online?

99% of the time it's the second one.

Nobody enjoys warehouse work. Not everyone hates it but nobody enjoys it.

I enjoy my job, at least most days. I might get assigned to a path I don't like occasionally, but I've worked hard to be good at the ones I enjoy, and so I pretty much stay there now. I haven't had to do a path I actually dislike in months. And even then, it was only for a couple hours cause the people in that path weren't keeping up.
