We're bombarded with messages about finding a job we're passionate about. But the truth is, "dream jobs" in exciting fields (think gaming, fashion, tech) often come with hidden downsides.

High turnover and inexperienced management are common in these industries. Passion fades fast when you're forced to do something 40+ hours a week, often with little reward.
