I disagree, emotional work is work, and « positive energy » sums it up quite well.
Edge cases exist, but when I’m sad, I just stop being sad at work, because it’s been clearly stated, from the first interview, that positivity was a requirement of performance.
One edge case: colleague lost her mother last year, of course we didn’t expect her to perform excruciating emotional work.
