Lots of us have ideas about their “dream jobs”. There are two contradicting views on dream jobs:
1) some see it as a life calling, we are predestined to do something on our life, to help people, do something beneficial etc, everybody should follow their dreams, and do their “dream jobs”.
2) dream job is a complete social illusion. TV and other mass media are implanting ideas about “dream jobs” into our heads. Idea is false because every job is hard, no job is ideal, and there are not enough “dream jobs” around. Everybody want to do arts or modelling, but it is simply not economically sustainable.
