People say that when you work with what you love, you never have to work a day in your life, because you are doing something you enjoy. That is something Hetfield relates to, since he said in an interview with CBS that he has the best job in the world. The musician talked about what it is like to be Metallica’s frontman and how important it is for him and the band to give back to society and help those who need it most through their charity initiatives. James Hetfield says he’s got the best job in the world "I am so blessed. I have the best seat in the house. I got the best job in the world, if you even wanna call it a job. It's so easy. Just looking into one set of eyes, that's all it takes for me. I will hook up with one person's eyes and I'll just see them change. I'll see the passion in them, and I'm full. My heart fills right up and I'm ready to just keep going, kicking ass. "I have the best job in the world. I get to see three generations of people hugging each other. Oh, God, the last thing I would've wanted to do is go to a gig with my dad, or my grandpa even. But I see that happening out there. And little kids down in the front, old people down the front, people in wheelchairs down the front. A mix match of backgrounds and stories of people. We gather a lot of misfits around this planet, and we make a family out of it. And we create some energy that helps us get through life." He continued: "I found my passion early on in life. I'm super grateful for that. I had parents that were supportive. And I struggled. I struggled hard to get what I thought was what I needed, which was be in a band and make music. Struggle is part of it, and with this foundation, hopefully we're a little bit of a helping hand getting from that, 'I can't get out of this struggle. I just can't,' to the, 'I can, but I gotta work hard and I'm gonna be able to get what I want,'" James Hetfield said. All Within My Hands is a non-profit, philanthropic organization created in 2017 by the members and management of Metallica, dedicated to creating sustainable communities by supporting workforce education, the fight against hunger, and other critical local services. They have already donated millions of dollars to support many different kinds of causes, from natural disaster relief to helping provide food for people in need. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kg4kKVYAgYo
