What would be your dream job?

[neoteric lefty]

If you could go back in time and begin anew with the lessons you know now, what job/profession/field would you pursue? It would be great if they were realistic jobs. No starting QB for the Packers. Oh what the hell, put down whatever you want.

[mondo joe]

25. Profiler.

[skygazer]

26. Something in medicine

Vet would be good because I love working with animals. I've worked as a vet tech and really love it but medicine in any form intrigues me (that sounded interesting, didn't it?).

Nursing, surgery, pediatrics, physical therapy, even things like being a coroner have an appeal for me.

[fluffernutter]

I'm an analytical type but creativity is much more fun and having a unique completed work is much more satisfying to me than solving a problem that really only has one best solution.

If you ever get to the Netherlands but the thought of staying at the Flying Pig is a bit much for you, take the train to Utrecht and stay at Strowis (http://www.strowis.nl). The place is run by anarchists and it has the a groovy hippie vibe about it. And the BEDS. The beds are to die for.
