I see other people working in jobs that wouldn't be seen by anyone as a "passion" such as office management, electricians, even cops or paramedics - everyone I know just works for the money and bites the bullet as far as passion goes. Is there something wrong with me, or is the whole "follow your passion and you'll never have to work a day in your life" a big corporate joke?

Unfortunately or fortunately I'm in a position of having to look for a career change due to a recent episode and getting a really bad reputation at work. I'm going to battle to find decent referees for future employment.
