What would be your ideal job?

[Sweaty Betty]

Would you ever go on it?

If i get through

 

[spring-peeper]

I missed the airship bit.


Why would you want to go on an airship? Don't you wanna swim with the dolphins? You can't go swim with the dolphins on an airship.

 

[el-ahrairah]

1. Absolute ruler and benevolent dictator of the entire universe.
2. Living off a trust fund.
3. Novelist.
4. Music journalist in the early 1990s.
5. Performance and Monitoring Officer for a Housing Association for people with serious support needs.

Seeing as number 1 never seems to be advertised, my father was a tight-arsed train driver, I'm incapable of completing a novel, and I was born too late for number 4, I reckon discovering that I enjoy my job (despite all the liberalism) kind of makes it alright.

 

[spring-peeper]

I wanna keep doing what I am doing now, mostly diddly-squat, and get paid lots and lots of money.


I just saw malcolm's post - and want to change my answer.


I want a big trust fund too!!!

janitor.

 

[sojourner]

Of course we could never be DJ's in the same club. Can you imagine the fighting over what to play?

I never see jobs for park ranger on any job sites. Would love something like that though

aye - fucking riots in the booth every night

Nah - I've never seen any either. Perhaps there's a job site exclusively for park rangering?

and pip - what fucking pub was he drinking in?

 

[sojourner]

janitor.

A mild-mannered one?

tétaire: 19th century nomadic professional who 'performed the function of a breast pump by sucking mothers' breasts to start the flow of milk'
on second thoughts, that wouldn't be much fun.
bookseller or teaching kids to read

One where the park rangers and gardeners drank. He bought me some cuttings in once and they got chatting about plants, and eventually they went "here, fancy a job doing the roses?". The rest is history

 

[Pip]

teaching kids to read

There aren't enough men working with children (don't ), and a lot of schools encourage people to volunteer a couple of hours to help children with their reading - if you've got the time you should look into it.

 

[Orang Utan]

yeah, i know, i'm looking into it.

Right then, I will ask the next park ranger I see where he drinks I'll have to make sure I'm looking extra dykey so he dunt get the wrong idea

that's a point actually - I've never seen a female park ranger

Birds don't spend enough time in pubs.

 

[Orang Utan]

i'm not sure i'd like to be a park ranger - it's a frustrating business, always being outsmarted by a bear in a hat and collar

I was gonna say - Jellystone Recruiting would be a great name for a park rangering job site

Martian Colonist.

I'd be part of the control group obviously, the 'B Ark' so to speak. The scientists and terraformers would do all the work while I just ragged buggies around mars and cultivated weed in the hydroponics dome

You probably would end up with some geologists, plumbers, and xes seeking truth with his aspergers buddy running from the fbi. Really you'd be better off opening a secondhand porn shop

I think I've found it - teaching at secondary.

Apart from that I'd like to be a professional sportswoman.

I think I'd quite like to be a potter, but it pays so badly it's not possible.

I will move into this work when I am fit.
I already write, research and do art, but I am not making any money from it.
