Real Job vs. Dream Job
Permalink Closed

The College Poll got me thinking about this one.


1. What is your real job? For me, I'm an attorney in financial crimes.


2. What is your dream job? I wish I was a) a civil rights attorney; or b) a literature professor at a college or university; or c) a soundtrack maker (don't even know what they're called) for movies and/or television.


What about y'all?

You women crack me up!!!


Honey - you HAVE to walk to work? That's hilarious that walking is a part of your dream job.


Maddie - a whale trainer? I'm impressed. Maybe you could set up a camera, train your whale, stand atop him/her in a Gucci frock and a handbag of your own making, and take your own picture which you will submit to NG and grace its covers. What do you think?


Andrea Julia - god, I'd hate to be Paris!!! You'd have to be on some crappy reality television show to be any good at being a socialite. I bet you could do it with a smile though!

Real Job: Manager/Visual Merchandiser for a major retailer


Dream Job: Boutique Owner (eventually would turn into a chainlet of boutiques in a concentrated area--wherever I end up settling down), Graphic Designer, Fashion Writer, Jewerly Designer (I guess I do two of those things, well 3, sort of, but I don't have Photoshop and Illustrator on my home computer, so it makes it difficult and I don't make nearly enough to pay the bills with those--yet!).


Ideally, I would love to work mostly from home or else have my office/boutique no farther than a block away. Honey, I understand about wanting to walk to work!! Commuting bites!!
