I have greatly enjoyed certain periods of time in some jobs, say for 3-6 months when I'm working on great stuff. But even during those times, I'm not like in love with every minute or even every day of it. Its more like a sense of energy to learn/do something, or a feeling of accomplishment/pride when i hit a milestone. Maybe a joy in learning something new and cool sometimes. I think thats the closest you can get to loving a job - its fleeting moments of specific positive feelings. The day to day is still just work - JIRA and dumb bugs, annoying tasks, boring meetings, broken dev environments, frustrating APIs and code blah blah :p
