Is your job just temporary or was it the only thing you could find at the moment in this hurt economy, or is the job you work something you want to become the best at and is a lifetime passion of yours...explain.

Well since it's the holiday season and i only work parttime alllll of the full time guys who've been their for years want to work more and more hours for the money so i work like 14 hours a week now.

I work at Fed-Ex stacking boxes in trucks, but the pay is 12.25 an hour. But still, it's just a pay check even if it is a small one.

Used to be a passion who wouldn't want to be a radio DJ, but now it's just a paycheck. Back to school for film now though.

I work for a landscaping company now worked my way up to a boss position, but I started my own business on the side anything to avoid having to go to college. It's a passion though I've picked up a lot of skills and knowledge about shrubs/plants etc, so while it's a passion the long run might include another occupation unless creating a business is successful.

Totally just a paycheck. I work in fast food. I mean, yeah, I love cooking and such, but not like this.

But you gotta take what you can get.

I think a Job or Career could be a passion in any point. But that "paycheck" backs up that passion. So without "paycheck" that passion kind of disappears.

It's a paycheck. I work in the computer lab at the college I attend. While I have met some great people and made some new friends, the job itself is pretty dull. In fact it really shouldn't be a job. If people would use common sense and simply observe what I help them with - I wouldn't be needed at all.

I think everyone at some point wishes to make money from something their passionate in. I hope that as well. But since I'm young, right now it's just for a paycheck.

Paycheck. There's not a job in the world I would have as a "passion" or enjoy. Something about not actually being able to do what you want when you want.

Currently it is just a paycheck but hopefully within the next year I can move into a field that I am more interested in or save enough to be able to pull off the job I am really passionate about, being a daytrader.
