Also, I don't want to be the dick head who says this is character building. But when you get a job where they treat you right, you'll work your ass off while the pot smokers get fired because they take it for granted.

It's true. The place I worked before that was family owned and I was good friends with the owner and all our staff. We were tight and efficient, it was the best place I ever worked. Even on days that I didn't want to go to work, as soon as I got there I couldn't help but think "Man I love being here" and if I had a problem I knew the owner or my manager would listen to me and that they valued my opinion. I'd gladly bend over backwards for that place because I fucking loved it and knew that it was a good place to be. So to go from that to a corporate place really made me feel like I was being treated like dirt, and even though I worked twice as hard as most of my coworkers I never got any recognition for it. 

Working somewhere that actually recognizes your worth as a human being really does make all the difference. And yeah no place is perfect but some places are definitely way worse than others.
