DA: Personally, I believe it's important to have a job that you like, something you enjoy, because you do spend a lot of your life at work. But I think a lot of people think a job is "great" because it has prestige, or a certain amount of money or importance - not that it's necessarily a job you're suited for, or that you're doing something you actually like.

That's what I think the other anon was getting at.

Again, YMMV, but I've seen too many people stuck at jobs they hate, but they can't leave "because the pay is too good." Eh. Not the way I want to spend my life.
