I think you have an interesting perspective, Antonio. In truth nobody knows what job they're going to love. Many people end up in positions they can't stand. As somebody who loves the work they do now, after getting a tough start, I will tell you that finding a job that you love is about more than the pay. You have to respect and enjoy being around the people you work with. You should believe in the vision of the company, and hopefully work in the industry you prefer. However, not all of these things make a great job on their own. These days, it is important to pick the company you work for, and the boss you work for, carefully.
Unfortunately, without doing deep research it is hard to tell the culture of a company or if you will love a job from a five paragraph job description. In truth, not only will your interests change as you learn and grow, but it will take time in a position before you know whether it is right for you. The key is to look for opportunities, to shift from uncomfortable roles to the ones you enjoy and planned for. And sometimes, it is the role that you begrudgingly applied for that ends up being your lucky break. So be patient, and keep your chin up, because I believe that you will find what you're looking for.
