If you could quite your current job and be anything you want to, what would you do? :sly:

Personally, i would love to be an editor for a magazine like Car&Driver. Drive all the newest and nicest cars in the world.

I would also love to be a Mythbuster. Their job is never repetitive and it seems like a load of fun. Pay cant be too shabby either :dopey:

So what would you do for a living if you had a choice?
 
Chief designer at a top F1 team like McLaren. Or a surgeon, and maybe even a stockbroker, a £200,000 Christmas bonus isn't bad and I'll be able to retire after about 10 years.

EDIT: A really cool job would be getting hired at National Geographic as a photographer/journalist.
 
Mythbusting would be fun, I'm sure. I wouldn't do half of the things Jamie and Adam put themselves through, however.

Anyway,

Big budget movie director
Congressman (probably would be a nightmare job ;) )
Radiologist with my own imaging and diagnosis center/complex thing. (working on this one)
Principal/Chairperson of my own school.

Perhaps the 3rd one could lead to the last. That would be interesting.
 
Curator at either the British Museum or the Natural History Museum in London. If it was at the British Museum I'd want to curate the Anglo-Saxon Britain or Roman Britain collections they have because they are absolutely wonderful. If it was at the Natural History Museum I would want to curate the human evolution exhibit.

It's always been sort of a dream of mine to work at a highly distinguished museum and hopefully once I complete my degrees I will have a chance to at least start heading down that path.

F1 driver, duh?

My thought's exactley, but aside from the obvious, I'd like to be a Motorsport Photographer. Sitting around taking pictures of man and machine in (almost) perfect harmony and get paid for it? Now your spoiling me..
 
I used to want to be a famous musician.
Now I'd like to be an obscure, but wildly successful songwriter collecting massive royalties when my songs hit in 3 different genres.👍
 
Chief engineer for the development of the US's next frontline fighter aircraft. Why? Because the US has hardly any budget constraints!
 
WRC driver.

On a more realistic note, more likely automotive Journalism I am thinking. Put this together after I realized I like knowing how things work, but not entirely thrilled about engineering, and I also like writing, driving, and expressing opinions.
 
Professional Photographer. Photojournalist maybe. No weddings or anything like that. I'm talking National Geographic and the like.
 
I often joke with a friend that we should be F1 commentators. We’d rock so very much.
 
My dream job is currently filled by Jeremy Clarkson, James May, and Richard Hammond.
 
Becoming a motoring journalist/ test driver would be very cool.
 
I'd like to be James' personal chaffeur and footstool.

If I fail to reach my dream of the above, then I would very much like to work in advertising and marketing.
 
I don't think there is a *dream job*. If someone's hobby becomes his/her dream job, it's no longer a hobby anymore, it becomes a job like any other job. A job you have to do every day, if you want it or not. It becomes a daily routine. It's still possible to have fun from time to time but a job is a job, dream job or not.

Just because you feel that way does not mean there is no such thing as a dream job. My "dream job" is the highest level I could achieve with my given degree, which is really what everyone should be striving for. If you can be in the pinnacle of your field than you have made it.

No, it's getting paid for doing what you like.
 
I'd like to be a fluffer in the lesbian adult entertainment industry.
 
Even some F1 drivers become fed up with driving a F1 car and race. At a certain point, there is not such thing as a dream job. A job is a job.

This is my personal opinion.
