Not a serious one, but my hot take is that helping people move is fun!

Alot of people complain about it, but think about it. You get to spend quality time with friends or family, get a little exercise, teamwork, and usually at the end of the day you get to share a well-earned meal together

Helping people move is fun. Moving is hell.

Moving is actually fun when you're a kid who doesn't really have attachments to any of your peers at school and you have no responsibility to help move things so you just get to chill and watch the process while daydreaming about your new home.

Like the novelty of moving is soooo awesome!

Then the "honeymoon period" is over and you find out your new school is less diverse, less people who look like you and there are more bullying. :(

And as an adult, you're suddenly in a new house that doesn't have the dozens of tweaks that you fixed in the past years, and you'll have to deal with the moronic amateurism from the previous owners.

Which is exactly what the people moving into your house will say as well.
