Description:

In this episode, we discuss the concept of a dream job and how it affects our career expectations. We also play a rousing game of 'Would You Rather...'

What you’ll hear:

Our definition of a ‘dream job’ and a breakdown of some of the most popular dream jobs A discussion on how the desire for meaningful work affects job expectations and performance Jacey and Maggie divulge some of their dream jobs An insightful game of ‘Would you Rather...’

Can I quote you on that?

“People want to stuff their faces all the time.” - Maggie “There is a tendency to major on the dream and minor on the job.” - Jacey “We put too much stock in our jobs fulfilling us.” – Maggie “Our (generation’s) expectations for dream jobs are way out of proportion with reality and set us up for disappointment and disillusionment.” – Jacey “We’ve taken opportunity and turned it into birthright.” – Ted Harro, Huffington Post “It’s important to have a healthy balance between gratitude and aspiration.” – Jacey "Don’t let your passions die at the expense of your job" – Matt Ehresman, Relevant Magazine “Here’s something…you might be the problem.” – Jacey “You heard it here, listeners, Maggie doesn’t care about you.” – Jacey
