Dream Job

bob · 02-08-2006, 02:24 PM

Really I'm just trying to waste the last 35 minutes or so of work today, but I was wondering what everyone's dream job would be...

Mine would be a travel writer... Paid to explore the world at large and then share my observations with others...

You?

Mustang · 02-08-2006, 02:35 PM

Your dream job is to be Andy Rooney???

For me.. game designer. (non-computer)

Loren · 02-08-2006, 02:36 PM

I'd like to start up a ranch in nevada and share MY observations with others

JonInMiddleGA · 02-08-2006, 03:03 PM

My for real, no lie, dream job would be to be a professional demographer

(and since I'm dreaming here, that'd be a "highly paid, sufficiently busy, professional demographer with untouchable job security")

wade moore · 02-08-2006, 03:09 PM

My dream job would be a sports photographer. I'm a bit of an amateur photographer (although I've REALLY slacked the last few years) and would love to combine my two big passions - sports and photography.

Raven Hawk · 02-08-2006, 04:44 PM

Izulde · 02-08-2006, 04:55 PM

Ruler of my own independent country where I get to determine everything about it.

Barring that, founder of my own Division 1 University or owner of my own sports team.

More realistic dream jobs? Novelist or soccer coach/manager.

LoneStarGirl · 02-08-2006, 05:13 PM

The legal house of prostitution 15 miles east of Reno has been closed ever since the IRS seized the place in 1999 following the conviction of the bordello's manager and its parent companies in a fraud and racketeering case. The women who worked there were evicted and the brothel was padlocked.

Oh. You want to work for the Census Bureau? (Not sure about the highly paid bit, but everything else is probably up your alley.)

duckman · 02-08-2006, 09:32 PM

An offensive coordinator for a college or professional team.

Barkeep49 · 02-08-2006, 09:42 PM

Philanthropist. I can think of doing nothing better than having to work hard to spend large amounts of money in the best way possible. Being able to just give out money on a regular basis to make the world better? Awesome.

SackAttack · 02-08-2006, 09:43 PM

Professional stadium tester.

Visit all of the pro stadiums during a game and make sure the seats are comfortable, the beer is cold, the sight lines are good...

What do you mean, that's not "work"?

So are you saying you want mentally screwed-up kids so you can fix them? Or just to fix the ones that are ALREADY mentally FUBAR?

you also need to run around on the turf to see if you blow a knee out.

I'm saying that I actually want to be reimbursed for performing therapy, and not just be someone who prescribes meds only due to economic realities (and referring all of the therapy to a social worker that I work with)

I think there are already plenty of messed up kids that I wouldn't need to create any more.

My other dream job would be pro baseball player (I think they take less abuse on their bodies than most other sports.)

BrianD · 02-08-2006, 10:21 PM

I'm thinking being an NFL ref could be kind of cool. Great seats for a game and it doesn't go year-round. I'd just have to make sure I am better than those who did this season's playoffs.

illinifan999 · 02-08-2006, 10:30 PM

sterlingice · 02-08-2006, 11:46 PM

Let's pretend that 20 years of playing the outfield in Wrigley is a tad out of touch...

I'd be all over professional baseball beat writer or video game writer. Don't get me wrong, guys over at Gamenikki or SGS- I love doing it, but getting paid a good wage to do it would be a dream job

Or how about professional tourist? Is there any way to travel around the world and just see everything there is to offer and be paid to do such?

SI

TazFTW · 02-09-2006, 12:33 AM

NFL GM, although that NFL draft analyst also sounds good.

BuffaloHuskey · 02-09-2006, 09:06 AM

Besides for being an over-paid 3rd starter for the San Francisco Giants...

I would love to be an NFL Salary Capologist (it's actually something that I could possibly pursue, having audited an NFL franchise a few years ago it could get me in the door at least.)

Non-sports related - I would like to be an undergarduate business/accounting professor at Arizona State, Florida State, or Indiana
