뜻
Enjoying professional life.
문화적 배경
Dutch people value 'werkplezier' (work-pleasure). Saying you are 'dol op je werk' is seen as a sign of a healthy life balance. Flemish speakers also use 'dol op', but might occasionally use 'zot van' (crazy about) which sounds slightly more dialectal or informal. In Surinamese Dutch, expressions of emotion can be more exuberant, but 'dol op' remains a standard, understood phrase for professional pride. Modern startups in Amsterdam use this phrase frequently to attract talent, often putting it in job descriptions.
