What is/was your dream job?

[Jaximus-Lion]

I always wanted to be a video game designer and PC engineer. I am pretty good with building computers, fixing it (hard and software and i am a pretty good gamer 😁. Now i am obsessed with knives, cooking and sowing my own veggies, specially chilliwhat is your dream job?

[MCheetah]

My dream job was to be a major television and movie producer, like a soyless version of Kevin Feige or a talented version of JJ Abrams. I have so many TV and movie ideas out there. But I think everyone knows how soulless and hyper-corrupt Hollywood is, in general. I'd have to move to Canada or something to even hope of breaking into a somewhat sane show business, but Canada is almost as bad as Hollywood is. I also have a TV pitch playlist for the stuff I have as show or movie concepts, ranging from live action to animation, from serious to comedic.

I am very happy being an attorney.

[Jaximus-Lion]

When did you become an attorney?

[OlderAndWiser]

1986

[Jaximus-Lion]

I don't know how to ask! Is there specific kind of lawyer/attorney?

[OlderAndWiser]

Most attorneys do specialize in one area of the law, such as taxation or real estate law, but I am a general practitioner.

[diamonddreams]

@OlderAndWiser do you still practice law? At what age do lawyers retire?

[OlderAndWiser]

@diamonddreams Some lawyers retire in their late 50's, especially if they have been making several hundred thousand in salary every yeaar and have a few million st aside for retirement. Some people work as long as they ar able, because they love what they are doing, and they just gradually slow down the volume of their practice. The second option is what I will do, but i'll still go full-time until at least age 70. My girlfriend is 9 years younger than me, and there is not much point in me retiring before she does, plus I am still healthy and active and enjoy working.

[OlderAndWiser]

Thanks for MHO!

[melanieeeB]

I'm trying to still figure it out...

As a little girl I wanted to be a princess, didn't work out lmao
Later I wanted to be a teacher, I can't teach.. I'm awful at it
And then I wanted to go to the police but I was too short back then.. soo yeah now I'm stuck with taxes

[Jaximus-Lion]

Well! Hear me out! As a kid (more specific 1990) I had a present from my cousin who lived in Germany (and still) the present was a 1990 Germany jersey of Klinsmann (#18) and they won the WC. So my dream was that i wanted to be a football player!!! In freaking Iraq 🤣 with diabetes. I gave up on that dream in 2006. Teaching! Oh i suffered real hard to know how to teach and now am a master. I taught people how to play video games (not easy by the way), how to cook, how to write, how write and read English, how to use a computer and so on. Teaching needs patience and guidance, it is a long process and failing is a part of doing it right.

[melanieeeB]

But I'm sure you still played football 😂 Maybe it could have happened, I mean why not
And congrats, I find teaching is a real skill and not everyone can do that for sure

[Paris13]

Published Author (Dreamed of That and it Has happened) and to be My own Boss, Which I am. Also, Social Worker But Being a Master and Influncer is Good enough. xxoo

[Jaximus-Lion]

Interesting. What kind of author? I didn't kniw that about you

[Paris13]

lol!!! Published Play. "Julie's Web" By Purice Nichols. I Know just a paris13 Here, dear. lol!!! xxoo

[Paris13]

Thank You, sweetheart. xxoo

[Ez-Bri-Z]

When I was younger I wanted to be a lawyer. I love debate, I have a strong sense of justice, I love to research and back then it seemed like I could get a lot of money by doing it. Then I realized I had to get up and speak in front of people and my social anxiety said nope.

In college I wanted to go for computer programming, but I hated writing for my English courses so I left.

Now the fun irony in all this is now that I'm an adult, I kind of want to be a writer. I find it much more therapeutic when I can pick my own topics and not forced into an assignment.

[DizzyDesii]

Dont really have one anymore outside of becoming a mom but at the time it was radio vj, film critic/screenwriter, casting director, interior showroom designer, song ghostwriter, sex therapist, copywriter/jinglewriter, magazine editor, kindergarten teacher, wedding planner, travel coordinator, and music video director/choreographer

[Jaximus-Lion]

So you wanted to be Kevin Hart, 🤣. I couldn't let this go by me just like that

[DizzyDesii]

What part is kevin hart

[DizzyDesii]

Because of the wedding and film?

[Jaximus-Lion]

Just the wedding film? 😐 JUST!!

[DizzyDesii]

I said wedding AND film like how he produces stuff. I don't know that much about him. I see him when insee him

[ARWINGx1]

Helicopter Pilot. The biggest hurdle is that applying for ANY aviation training is expensive as heck.

I mean, not only is a Helicopter more "versatile", I easily get sleepy when bored. Meaning that If I was an Airliner Pilot. Once in the air, I'll just need to prepare & activate the Autopilot, then sleep through the majority of the flight. Besides, I suspect that I wouldn't have much free time. 'specially at home.

With smaller planes though, it's likely that I should NOT be reliant on the AP. Though I'd still go with Helicopters.

[FTnWo]

So as a kid I wanted to be a trash man because I liked how they stopped emptied the metal cans out and violently threw the cans back into the yards.
And now I'm far from my dream job and that would be like archeology as I would dig for artifacts for the fun of it, also growing weed sounds cool to.

[humanearth]

I always dream of having a life in the Military, but due to childhood ailment it stopped me cold from joining and becoming a soldier. Might say I am 4F (old WW2 term)

But I am living out my other dream of being a farmer

[Jaximus-Lion]

I had the chance to soldier up, it sucks and it's horrific in my openion. I know how to use few guns and thats it. Farming is hard 🤣 but am loving it, that feeling at the end of the day, you watch the Sunset while watering the farm, take a cold beer with loved once ! Priceless.

[humanearth]

You farm to

[Jaximus-Lion]

Are you serious right now? I don't have a farm, but we turned our garden to a jungle. Look at the cover in my profile.

[humanearth]

I see what you mean

[Jaximus-Lion]

One day am gonna make a (My take) about our garden.

[elizamichale1]

[Jaximus-Lion]

We tried to do the pornhub amature program, we failed. I liked that but could't get the Mrs on board to do more 🤷‍♂️

[elizamichale1]

[Jaximus-Lion]

May i ask how difficult is it to be in this kind of work? In general.

[elizamichale1]

[elizamichale1]

Well in porn they make u use drugs n post retirement life is kind of scary
In my work they exploit u n pay very lesd

[Jaximus-Lion]

[Jaximus-Lion]

What is it you do?

[najekim]

[Jaximus-Lion]

Nice 👍. My dad was an electric engineer for Iraqi air defense force. We were never a threat for airplanes 🤣

[Jay3344]

I wanted to be a skydiving tandem jumper or scuba guide in the tropics. Almost did the scuba one, anyways there’s still time to go for it.

[Jaximus-Lion]

[Pterodon]

Aircraft mechanic for Gulfstream Aerospace and I did it without a GED

Different times, my dad was an electrical engineer and taught how to wire main power boxes and i never went to college/university. Were the planes jets you worked on?

[Pterodon]

Of course they are

[Pterodon]

Cooking is now my biggest hobby and I love my Shun Premier knives

[Jaximus-Lion]

Well! I am a chef and i grow my own veggies. Razer sharp knives are so satisfying 👌

[Pterodon]

I agree plus as a professional tool user much safer.

[jennifer_bloom]

A communications specialist or customer relations specialist at a tech company or hedge fund.

[Leonharted]

A job is just the means to an end for me. It funds my life, nothing more. I am not picky about what I do, and never have been.

[DizzyDesii]

I agree like i just want to make money to support my future fam and to build a house. Outside of that? I dont care about money that much nor the job as long as it doesn't frustrate me

[nandana_n]

My dream job was to become an actress (I'm kind of a theater kid and have acted in many small plays)

[ariadneR]

Adventure acheollogist. And a teacher. So basically Indian Jones.

[Aerissa_Jade]

Still trying to figure it out, really thought I'd be married with kids by now. Thought my job would be raising them.

[horatiohornblower]

Oil boy for the Swedish Bikini Team.
