I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who's happy at his job! 😀 I knew when I was 10 when I first started programming that that was where my passion lay. Consequent to that, any job that lets me exercise a degree of creativity in programming is a job I love. Lots of times I noticed the creativity I crave is in problem solving, deciding how to create an efficient expression of a solution in a computer language. I've learned many languages and worked on a few different platforms, so even though the scenery changes at times the passion is still there for me.

Good luck to those still searching for their passion.
