Would you want to be operated on by a surgeon that's on the verge of c------ as they cut into you? Even barring such a dramatic example, depending on the sophistication and relative sapience of the robot (and l'm assuming some degree of it if the robot is capable of processing pleasure at all), it could lead to inefficiency, perhaps even self-sabotage. A facility could start to take on Winchester House- like "useless" features, built only for the sake of BEING built. A security robot might somehow "invite" breaches, just for the rush of ecstasy it gets from capturing intruders. A maintenance robot might dwell over a particularly "sexy" part of its routine.

About
Paperclip Maximizer is a thought experiment about an artificial intelligence designed with the sole purpose of making as many paperclips as possible, which could hypothetically destroy the world or even the entire universe by converting all resources into paperclips due to instrumental convergence.
Origin
In 2003, Swedish philosopher Nick Bostrom released a paper titled "Ethical Issues in Advanced Artificial Intelligence," which included the paperclip maximizer thought experiment to illustrate the existential risks posed by creating artificial general intelligence.[1]
"Suppose we have an AI whose only goal is to make as many paper clips as possible. The AI will realize quickly that it would be much better if there were no humans because humans might decide to switch it off. Because if humans do so, there would be fewer paper clips. Also, human bodies contain a lot of atoms that could be made into paper clips. The future that the AI would be trying to gear towards would be one in which there were a lot of paper clips but no humans."
Spread
On April 17th, 2009, an entry for the thought experiment was submitted to the Less Wrong Wiki.[4] On October 1st, 2010, Redditor DarthContinent submitted the LessWrong article to /r/programming,[2] where it gathered more than 460 points (88% upvoted) and 450 comments prior to being archived. On April 27th, 2015, the TED YouTube channel released a talk by Bostrom in which he discussed variations of the thought experiment (shown below).
On January 6, 2015, Redditor eaturbrainz submitted a post titled "You are a paperclip maximizer who has been let out of the box. How do you destroy the world?" to /r/rational.[5]
Games
For the 2017 STDIO Game Jam, a paperclip maximizer video game made in Python was submitted by developer Omar Rizwan, in which the player converts various materials into paperclips.[3] In early October 2017, game designer Frank Lantz released the incremental game "Universal Paperclip" based on the thought experiment, in which the player controls a paperclip maximizer AI with the goal of turning all matter in the universe into paperclips (shown below).[12]
On October 11th, the Univesal Paperclip Wiki was created.[6] Over the next several weeks, the game was submitted to the /r/rational and /r/futorology subreddits and was reported on by several internet news sites, including Kotaku,[7] BoingBoing,[8] Venture Beat,[9] AV Club[10] and Kottke.[11] As interest on the concept spread, several technology publications such as The Verge[13] and Wired[14] and wrote about it with a focus on the dangers of AI.
