What would your dream job be? If you could have any job, doesn't matter where it is or what it is. What would you want to do? I have always had a dream to be a video game tester. While not likely to happen it would be nice.

My dream job would be to run an animal shelter for abused, neglected, lost or whatever pets, as well as injured or orphaned wildlife. There would be an education centre - both for people who want to work with animals and also an education programme for schools and kids etc. There would be a 'no kill' policy. The enclosures would be as big as possible, and as close to natural as possible for the wild animals. And all the animals would get first class food, first class medical treatment, and masses of attention and stimulation. I intend to do something like this if (when!) I win the Euromillions lol!

I tell you what, if we win the publisher's clearinghouse or the lottery we'll invest in you. that sounds awesome, although i'm afraid i can't let my wife help you, or we'd adopt them all. She's got a serious soft spot for displaced animals, and we've gotten just about every animal we've ever had from a shelter, or someone that was saying they'd take their animal to the shelter.

I never thought of that. Thanks for the question. I guess I never thought of that because I didn't think I had a choice in life to choose what I want to do. I lived in a very closeminded area and not much was expected from me because I was born a female. If I was a male, I would have had the world open in front of me. So, I tried to do my best to grow up and get out of there as soon as possible. The best way was to be an English teacher and move to another country! I did that. But I hated teaching, as I said it was not my choice! But I'll think about it now. :)

Forgot to say. I had a few dreams though. One of them was to work in a lab away from people. Another one was much bigger and better! I wanted to be a doctor and joing "doctors without borders" and I wanted to work in poor countries and help the poor and underpriviliged and then move from place to place in the world.

My dream job would be a bartender I think. The reason being is one I'm a night owl and two I love to talk to people. All kinds of people, happy people sad people well maybe not all I don't like mean people or angry people. But I think most are fairly happy. I worked in a coffee bar years ago and loved it except that I opened in the am and it was to early for me. But I new all my regular customers by name and new their regular drinks as well. I loved it. Listening to them about things that were happening i their lives. One of my most favorite customers that I had know for years was a little old man and he cam in 2 to 3 times a week. I never charged him for his coffee and always made sure that I had one of his favorite donuts. He went into the hospital the day before fathers day for surgery and I went to see him. It was the last time I saw him. I still miss him. Sorry for going off the discussion but wanted to share that to give a better understanding as to why, that would be my favorite job. Interacting with people when they are able to be themselves. I'd love that job!! :)
