So, if I'm happy at work and love my job does that mean that I'm gruntled?  |

I think in the case of the word gruntled, the dis prefix is only an intensifier, since the word 'gruntled' itself means unhappy, as far as I know. |

I tried several dictionaries and could not find the word "gruntled".
Thank you, I am no longer combobulated and I am now illusioned. |
