No, it makes them equal.
The only thing that lowers job satisfaction is unfair treatment or inequity. All jobs have inequity because you lose your freedom in exchange for monetary compensation.
There is no scientific evidence showing that people who get paid to do something they dislike hate the job more.
In other words:
Getting paid = loss of intrinsic value
Getting paid =/= hating something more
It's loss of enjoyment, not increase of disdain.
Don't argue psych if you're only using logic and reasoning. Psych is very much counterintuitive, it's not a simple math problem.
