Dream Job?

brummytom · 2009-09-27 21:42:07

Probably been done a billion times, but I don't like ressurecting threads from zonks ago. If you could have any job, what would it be? I'm not sure, but anything except office work. I did my work experience in an office, it was full of freaks.. mind-numbingly boring, I'd hate it. Anyway, yeah.. go forth and reply

Voice actor. The idea of being paid to make silly noises in the microphone is appealing.

That was until I found out it's actually a lot harder than it seems. Apparently it actually does require acting ability, vocal consistency and actual talent.

Now I want to be an Astronaut Mathematician that spends his spare time fighting crime and having sex with beautiful women.

Well, I thought of that once for a long period while sitting in one, but came to think id rather something else than hoards of loud American tourists yapping on about 'how awesome that **** is' and even cleaning up the odd vomit, or waking customers up. Its like being a bar manager here in Dublin, and thats not appealing, is it?

Was going to say a successful actor but I think a successful sportsman would be better. Probably a pro footballer or a F1 driver (perks include your pick of sweet supercars and a pussycat doll thrown in) God I hate Lewis Hamilton!

Ive reviewed pubs. Its ok, gets a bit stale. Go to establishment at specifics times and days while dressed certain ways, make slightly odd requests all while not being a regular and recieving mild disdain.. Then apply scoring formulae. Repeat.

Id like to be a mad engineer. Its more or less the typical view of being a mad scientist, but actually making sense. Why would a mad scientist take over the world?! Its dont see his theory to be tested, and its not like he has a control group world as part of the experiment.
