Ms Challinor and Mr Blunden have summed it up! All I would add is that, mostly, folks don't know what their 'dream job' is until they are much older.
Also, it is more often that you stumble upon the dream job - because you had not understood enough to put all the pieces of the jigsaw puzzle together.
This sounds like a straight forward PR exercise of people justifying their own jobs. I don't want to sound bitter as IT was good to me - until I got to be too old and the next generation of bright young things thought I was an old f@rt and did not want my 25 years of knowledge and experience.
