I've often thought that the best job, is one where you enjoy what you do.  So what if
someone else calls it 'toy building'.  If we didn't build 'toys' to help expand our
knowledge and imagination, we would not grow.  Imagine justifying going to the moon, 
or Linberg's flight or the Wright brothers at Kitty Hawk (and their contemperaries)
if they didn't strech their imagination, and enjoy their 'toys' in either the building
or the using we would be no where near where we are scientifically, technologically, 
or toy-wise.
