Ill be honest, I answer that way because I need to know if they're going to communicate with me like a normal person, if you can't respond positively to that answer or at least laugh it off and redirect, then I 100% can't trust you to pull off the manager face every now and then and talk to me civilly about things /be understanding and not uphold policies that make no sense.

The vast majority of the time they don't give a shit when they ask this question, they're just testing your willingness to kowtow. But this is especially true when its a fucking burger king.
I said this once, the interviewer said " thank you but we're looking for people who are passionate about the work here"
It was a fucking burger king
I only know one such guy
You didn’t let me finish, I want this job so I can make money for burger king! I just really love ground up dead animals and… monarchy
I think this is actually a fair question in the service industry. You're just need to read between the lines
"Can you lie to my face in corpo speak? Can you do it unprompted, when we both know you're lying?"
It's a given that you're interviewing because you need money. They want to know why else you want the job.

For sure. They're trying to find people who will work harder for less.
Benefits?
Only applies to some "skilled work" jobs tho, where you better have some passion or do a poor job.
good know early if company is bad to work with
