If you could only pick one career for the rest of your life, what would you choose?

Let’s say you can only pick one job, and you have to work it until you retire or die. You can never change jobs. What job would you pick, if you could work any job you wanted?

Job where i go to the office and type up stories made in my image about a recent problem the world is happening. I come in my skirt and shirt of my choice, from 10-8. Go to the bathroom whenever I want, and be considered as the best writer so if they fire me for cropdusting old betty, well, Betty can't type for shi like i can. <3

Maybe as a electrician or a ironworker.

I've considered studying engineering before, but 1. Might be too dumb for it and 2. Getting work might be hard. All three sound pretty cool and interesting, especially the first two.

Honestly the one I have now, I'm staff specialist at a temp agency. My job is to get you a job that you will hopefully make a good enough impression to turn it into a permanent job.

Farcry from retail (department manager) and my counselor days (mental health). Nothing is personal it's just straight business.
