What would be your dream job? I'd like to work in a thinktank devoted to

[applegrove]

the newsest liberal policies. One that is international. Of course I'd only be an assistant. But I'd get to learn something new every single day. You?

[Tobin S.]

1. Professional beer drinker

I hear it's a hard job to get, though.

[21st Century FDR]

9. Tell me who's hiring for that position

I could actually put an impressive resume together for that job, and wouldn't even have to embellish anything :beer:

2. Majordomo for Robin Masters' beachfront estate on Oahu...

...or for any other absurdly wealthy character who never ever visits their vacation palace.

But I wouldn't have two Doberman Pinschers like Jonathan Quayle Higgins III. Instead I'd have a small pack of mutts I adopted from the animal shelter.

3. Did I mention the think tanks annual meetings would be held in Hawaii?

[Silver Swan]

4. I often thought

I would like to be one of those people that wrote term papers for pay.

I never minded doing research papers--I always learned something from them. I wouldn't mind writing them for lazy students for money.

Of course, now they are a lot fussier about plagiarism than they were back in my student days!

5. I wish I could go back and write university papers again. I think so much more like an adult

now than I ever did when I was in university. I was a good kid who got sidetracked as a tween/teen. I couldn't think things through. I was a mixture of a short memory and self evasiveness.

[Forkboy]

6. Hockey player or astronaut.

I know a lot of people would love to send me to Mars. I'm all for it. :)

[nolabear]

7. Writer. I mean I AM a writer but I'd like it to be my only job and make plenty from it.

Takes SO much courage to put all your eggs in that particular basket though. I'm working on it but it isn't my only gig.

[kentauros]

10. That's the one I'm working on.

And yeah, I still have the "day job" ;)

[applegrove]

12. I'd so love to be a writer but I don't have an nose for grammar. I'd enjoy the solitude though. Good

for you for starting to live out your dreams.

[krispos42]

8. The 2nd-best porn editor in the world.

I gotta have room for improvement, right? ;-)





Actually, I'd like to be part of an organization making a truly unique, big engineering project. Like the space elevator, or building a floating city. That would be AWESOME!

[XemaSab]

11. Travel writer

:)

As long as my articles weren't all "I spent a week exploring the streets and countrysides and a week sitting on the toilet."

Which is exactly how my last trip went. :hurts:

[provis99]

13. God Emperor of the Universe.

I like to think small...

[Initech]

14. I wanna be Dr. Evil from the Austin Powers movies.

I kinda look like him too.

[Broken_Hero]

15. I'd love to work for Wizards of the Coast

on their Magic Card creation team, or work for DC as a creative consultant for their mainstream publications.

[laylah]

16. Lead Case Manager for a

facility for run/throw-away adolescents.

[Callalily]

17. Dive Master

Anywhere in the Caribbean!

[Chan790]

18. I'm still trying to figure it out (while I'm already doing it.)

Not the bank, I'm trying to start a new company on the shoestring (I'm trying to launch without any business debt whatsoever) doing messaging and social-media for NPOs, activism groups and politics. Some days, I think "We should do one-stop, everything: social-media, PR, web-design, development, graphic-design for campaigns, everything."; other days I think "Just do social-media and message-crafting. You can't do everything."

I really want to be a thought-leader and improve the way we message on the left. It seems preposterous to me that we cannot utterly dominate conservatism out of existence.

[no_hypocrisy]

19. Producer of a liberal radio talk show that has good ratings and good guests.

[lunatica]

20. I've always dreamed of being a self-employed philanthropist

I'm serious.

[Mendocino]

21. Watchman at Hanalei Bay

in Kauai. I would sit in a lounge chair all day making sure that the bay is still there.
