I was offered the opportunity by a former colleague. He was a project manager when we first worked together, and moved on to create his own consulting company.

I was offered the opportunity by a former colleague. He was a project manager when we first worked together, and moved on to create his own consulting company. It was an iOS app developer role, with lots of UI work (make the button blue) and other stuff I didn't care much about. But then something popped up, electronic signature with ID card. Nobody wanted to touch it. I wanted it badly. It was a lot of fun! I guess the story here is: do your best, even if you don't like what you work on. Eventually people will entrust you with better stuff. I'd make an exception for some cases though: unethical work. My first job required me to work on things I didn't approve of, morally speaking. I left, screw that. Nowadays I still do things that I love but everyone else hates. Right now that revolves around data science/engineering, but who knows where I'll be in a few years time. I just follow the flow :)
