Ok, I'm not asking you what your dream job is, if that were it, then I would say my dream job would be to do nothing and be a heiress or something, he he. Then I could travel the world and help other people who need it. Or I would be a moviemaker or something, but that is my dream job. What I'm asking is not what your dream job, but what job would you think you can do and enjoy doing right now. You know, something that's achievable right now with what you are qualified for. I think right now, I would love to have one of those game tester jobs. You know, those people who have to test games before they are released to the world, and get paid for it, that's the life? So, what's the best job for you at his moment, and it has to be something you can do.

Of course being the richest person in the world is taken. Well back to reality. I am at the best job right now. I work nights at a hotel and it is the easiest job that I have ever done. I do about 2 hours of work and the rest of the time is mine. I go between two hotels. The secon hotel I do about 4 hours work and the rest of the time is mine. So right now I am at the best job.

Hey cool man, good for you. It's nice to have what you want, especially when it comes to work, because I'm not really a huge fan of work.

It will have to do something with being creative and innovative.I love jobs that require being that way.And the reason for me liking them sure proves that i am creative and so on.Ok I'm gonna stop braggin' on this one.lol. I'd love anything thats got to do with computers.As you know that I've done my engineering in computer science and i love computers.So I'd love a job that involves me with computers be it coding,designing or anything of that sort.

sorry, I'm really bad at this, I always forget what my closest friends are studying too. So, I've already started that discussion about my website, check it out, I've tweaked it a little too.

I guess designing would be creative, and you probably would be good at it too. Coding, hmmm... doesn't sound that creative to me, which reminds me, I just made my own website, and I'm actually gonna start a discussion about it. So I hope to see you there.

The best job for me right now is something in publishing or writing. Something that would allow me to use my editing and writing skills. Or even something where I am helping kids whether it be teaching or a social worker for foster care companies or a child advocate for court. I have a lot of different aspirations.

yup, a lot of different aspirations and yet they're all good ones, I guess it's nice to have different options so in the process of trying to do all of them, you'll definitely do at least some of them. Good luck with those!!

Hmmmm. Despite your best efforts at disambiguation, it still is a bit hazy. I love writing and reviewing and I do a lot of writing now. I'm also into a bit of freelance writing. I love writing movie reviews and they are a recurring thing on my blogs, so the best job that I could do at the moment was a movie reviewer. It would also be a dream job. I'm also a very able computer programmer and would be quite interested to be assigned to some job that would put me in charge of devoloping a solution, but the job as movie reviewer would still be my first choice. I mean, think about it. You get to see movies a lot earlier that others, you get to write about it and criticize it where it is due, and actually get paid for it! I would love it!

Really? It's still hazy, well, I'm sure you got it though, I didn't know how else to explain it, I mean there's your dream job which can be something you would love to do, but are not really qualified to do so, like, for example, I've always also wanted to be an astronaut, but I'm not really trained for it, so it's more of a dream job, whereas, something that I know I can do right now, and that I would like to do is video game testing, because I play games, I know a lot about them, and I can clearly write a review for it. That's what I meant. Anyway, you're kind of already doing what you would love to do for a living, and so am I but the only thing is we're just not getting paid for it. If we were, that would be awesome!!

hehehe! You are absolutely right about the getting paid for it part! Hopefully, we will be able to do what we want and still get paid for it. Now that would be the dream job and the best possible job coming together! Won't that be sweet? And many thanks for rating my response as the best!

yes doing nothing at all is a dream job :) but as i can't see this happening anytime soon, an achievable wish would be a cyber cafe administrator, I did this before as a temp replacement for someone and it was very easy and fun :)

i also did my dream job "nothing at all" for a while but I couldn't afford it for long and you don't really enjoy it much when you are afraid to run out of money lol I hope to do it the right way one day :)

I would love to get the hang of this making money on the internet lark. I like to surf the traffic exchanges and see people claiming to make loads. I believe in the program I am with but we are just getting it sorted so I have not made much yet. I keep telling my family they will be smiling on the other side of their faces when it finally works. Then I will have money to spare after paying for their University education. (Even if they have loans it still costs me some.)

Well, I hope it works for you, that's what families are like, they think everything is a scam, but they'll know better when we succeed, I'm facing the same thing, yet I haven't really found a promising program yet. Tell me if yours works..

It would basically be the job i have now except for a few tweaks: I wouldn't have to get up at 5:30am twice a week and I had an assistant (which I am getting very very soon) so i am happy to say i am very near to having the best possible job for myself at this moment. =) woo hoo

The ideal job would be one where I earned good money, but for now I like what I am doing. I am finally selling some of my writing, I already have a book published, and I'm even picking up extra cash from sites like MyLot. What the heck! I like being able to write, and be creative. It's my life, and that's what I want to do for a living.

Well good to know you're already getting paid for what you like to do, I like writing too, and it's great that sites like my lot will pay us for it, but it's hardly a job, and I wish there were more sites like these.

I am actually doing the job that I want right now. I am a teacher, and I don't know if I could do any other job better. I have studied in order to be qualified to teach, and have earned a lot of experience in doing so. Hopefully someday, I would be able to put up my own school. That would be my dream. But as of the moment, I'm enjoying my job. Hope you get to that job you like (if you haven't been doing that yet). Happy myLotting!

Great, I love a teacher who actually wants to teach and is dedicated enough to learn new things in order to be a better one. I hope your dream of your own school comes true really soon. Good luck!

Right now, the best job for me is being home with my son and being the best mom and wife that i could possibly be. I would love to be a game or toy tester too, but apparently they don't allow stay at home mom's to do that. So I try to find freelance work whenever I can, but I take care of my husband and child first.

That's awesome!!! Not only that you've found the best job for you, but that you're loving every minute of it..I understand that is a hard job though. But there's only one way to do a job the best, and that is to do with love, if you love it, then you'll do the best you can, and you've got that down, so kudos to you!!!
