Out and about for a wildlife trust, conservation type stuff. Did it for a couple of weeks in Alaska with flying squirrels once, great fun.
Realistically something with a good group of people and few responsibilities. Not too many jobs like that!0 -
I'd set up a talent agency for aspiring fluffers.6

All these wannabe fluffers - pah!

Print Journalist probably politics, maybe football. Journalism was my first love but when I was at uni it seemed to be a real dying art, before independent journos and websites really became a thing.
Also, if I'd known about how the UK system does it, a doctor. My mum's a doctor, and I really enjoy problem solving, so I think some sort of internist would have been good. The problem here in the states is you have like ten years of school and residency, plus hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt to become a doctor.1 -
You can write a book now - I wrote a play recently - it suspect it isn't the best, but I enjoyed doing it and I did it for me rather than to make millions. I love anything creative - something you can look at and be pleased with yourself for doing - so in my current print job designing flyers, driving past alluminion school signs I have done etc... is rewarding whereas I didn't have that in previous jobs.ForeverAddickted said:Have always wanted to be an author as love books.
Photography is another career Id have liked1 -
For many years I've had an idea for a fiction series but have always struggled to get it from thought on to paperMuttleyCAFC said:

Maybe one day I'll return to it, although noticed on Amazon a little while ago that someone had released a series which is similar to the sort of thing that I wanted to write so wonder if I'll be able to now (or whether it'll be seen as copyright to an extent)0 -

No you're right, round my way, they never show up, so clearly you would have been sitting on yer arse all day, or playing golf.charltonkeston said:I actually wanted to be a postman.I always thought their job would suit me but I choose a life of engineering, what a waste time and effort it has turned out to be. I could have been walking around the streets whistling to myself, talking to strangers and being at home by mid-day.
Bet it isn't like that in reality.0 -
Interestingly, I am, also, happy with my career path, even though I didn't plan it in advance.golfaddick said:I'm very happy doing what I'm doing, but if it was for to earn oodles of money then probably a tv/ film star or F1 driver.

Absolutely wouldn't change a thing.
Left school with 3 GCSEs and was told to go and work at the local factory but being one who never follows the norm,
I got a job as a printing apprentice (compositor) at 16 which has lead me to a very long career in design which has lead me to my main career as retail design studio manager for the biggest company in the world, which is my main career and earner.
Along the way (20 years ago) I changed for 5 years as a fire fighter (brilliant job) but left due to lack of money
My main career has given me scope and time to follow my three main passions of music, Militaria collecting and martial arts of which I have done more than ok at (in my eyes) and I still pursue all 3, the plus of all 3 is that I earn from my passions, I'm lucky I get paid for doing shit that t I would do for fun.
I have been made redundant 3 times and to pay bills I have sold my collection and rebuilt it 3 times, I have made many mistakes but have learned from them, the mob singer sang of regrets but I have none career wise, if I was to peg out tomorrow then it would be with satisfied grin on my mooey!
Probably not what anyone wants to hear but that that's the Gods honest.
To balance it a little I am bald and fucking ugly.

If I'd known what I know now etc, I would either have been a journalist or a primary school teacher.
I can write (and do at times) but I steered away from it when I was young enough because I felt they were either all hacks or liars or both. I can see now that there are journalists with integrity and I could have done some of that. When I last looked, the entry level pay would not support a family.
Also I dismissed teaching when I was younger and when I realised I hated my job, my kids were at primary and I really enjoyed what was going on with them, I've got good knowledge and can energise people about subjects but when I tried to switch I got rejected. Probably dodged a bullet given the upheavals in schools and I am now happy where I am but it's something I wish I'd done when I was younger.
Not too unhappy about this - I am where I am by accident not design, but it's not a bad place to be.1 -
Actually, I'd probably end up doing the same job as now. This career found me, not the other way round. Where else does being an annoying pedant earn you money?0

I'm a little concerned for a few people on here, wanting to be fluffers?
I always thought this was a female dominated trade done by women who for whatever reason were not considered for the main rôle.
Whatever floats your boat.0 -
