    Would you accept a challenge to manage a sports club, a sport you never played before?
    Or would you accept an opportunity to manage a health club when you're no health freak.
    Well anything really, that's wasn't part of your life previously.

    Well I've seen Moneyball and The Brittas Empire so I reckon I could manage both a baseball team and a leisure centre.

    I think I could throw my hat in the ring for most challenges. A positive can-do attitude and a desire to learn are always very important. Of course you won't find Aongus marching into Beaumont suggesting he carry out brain surgery. I'd also have no desire to work in teaching, retail or IT. However, I'd give most things my best shot, and see how I could bring my own portfolio of skills and talents to the table in terms of bringing about improvements or efficiencies in how things are done.

    TV broadcasting... can't be any worse than the majority of chumps on TV3 and RTE.

    Richest man in the world. Is that job available? I'd make a right go of that.

    If the local foxy boxing / ladies mud wrestling club need a manager, I'll give it a shot

    I would direct a porn movie with limited experience of porn or sex.

    AH mod :cool:
    But really, I always figured I could give it a good go at being a social worker. I'd need to be trained obviously but I think I could handle it quite well.

    Maybe to have brain surgery?:)

    Would agree with the part below though.
    "A positive can-do attitude and a desire to learn are always very important."

    Would try anything except being a trawlerman; being pinned in a restricted area in those conditions and trying to make a living is my idea of a hell job. Actually any job that involves being at sea for long periods of time; submarines!!:eek:

    If what Paris Hilton and the Kardhasians do can be described as a job I reckon i'd make a pretty good fist of that.
