but what doesn't add up are people who refuse to do work in order to meet an end goal.

in the same vein as, 'someone gotta make the fries, or pick up the trash, or do a host of other things they don't particularly enjoy doing', the reality is - do the job now, do it well, then move on to something you enjoy.

AND people should be cognizant of their professional trajectory.

if you wanna be in health care (and are qualified), you got no business working at autozone.

have realistic expectations and all that, too.

I typed all that to say - yes, you should love what you do. It's not an unrealistic expectation or goal. but everyone isn't going to be content in every moment of their lives.

just not how the world 'works.'
