ok following what we do

I am doing my dream job, I couldn't imagine doing anything else now!

I missed the other two threads but I'll stick it all in here instead!

I live in Norfolk, I'm a teacher (Yr 6) and I love my job so prob wouldn't change it

x

This is going to sound mildy sad, and like I really never had any proper ambition, but when I was a kid I really wanted to be a librarian!! I guess I never thought about pursuing the career when I left school because its not like it would have been a hard job to get into! lol. And to change now would just mean a crazy paycut. I think I loved the idea of putting books into some kind of order!! Perhaps its some weird OCD thing.....

LOL I AM a writer, God knows how I ended up worrking in Banking for the last 11 years!

I would like to earn a living full time out of my writing and be a public speaker, a life coach or motivational speaker!

Ok my absolute dream job would be to work rehabiliting orangutans back to health and hopefully give them a second chance at life. Anything really to do with animals would be amazing but the orange furry friends are simply the best. If I didn't need to work to pay bills at the moment then H and I have already said I'd go on a 6 month break and volunteer at a orangutan rehab facility in Borneo. Babies will hopefully come along for us soon though so no chance of that happening for a very long time but hey you never know.

If it wasn't an animal related job then I'd like your job Sloan.

If I couldn't have that then tbh I have a pretty fantastic second job with the business and getting emails from brides saying they now have the perfect wedding accessories is such an amazing feeling.

I always wanted to act. Not movie acting and massive fame, just on the stage earn a living acting. That would be the dream. x

Always wanted to be a pilot - still would love to learn to fly but might have to wait until I retire when I've more time to study the navigation bit!

Being a midwife was all i ever wanted to do....but not anymore and that makes me feel very sad.☹️

I always wanted to be a probation officer - ive left it too late now tho :-(

I always wanted to be a criminal pathologist!!

I always wanted to be a dancer!

Why is it too late? Is there an age limit?

I have an Uncle who learnt to fly at the age of 65 and is now qualified to fly solo and also a cousin who is a pilot who does the Mexico run weekly for Thomson Holidays and I'm so green with jealousy When I left school, I dearly wanted to join the RAF but I was too small

When I was at school, I decided I wanted to be an interior designer. This was when Changing Rooms was the big thing.

Later decided this wouldn't be a good idea as I have a habit of decorating in pink and purple (every room in my house apart from my sons room is either pink or purple)

I would mostly love to be an Events Manager, otherwise a Vet

I'd love to be a forensic pathologist!! x

LOL this is what I wanted to be when I was growing up - I think I went through some weird morbid phase (which lasted most of my childhood!!) God no's how I ended up as an employment advisor! Id love to work in events (poss weddings!!) and I really want a bridal boutique for "plus size" women doing some training and on a course for the last two so fingers crossed one day soon!!

SNAP!

Ever since I was little and my dad bought me a type writer. Then thought I would never be able to do it. So after I had my daughter I trained as a teacher, but my hearts not in it. So after the wedding im going to start writing a book (well already started planning), dreaming of becoming the next JK Rowling but most likely to stay in teaching {{sigh}}

When I was little I wanted to be Quincy! Or a vet. Or an actor. Or an astronaut.

Now I'd like to ba a lady of leisure. Or a professional Dominatrix.

Me too! We really are a bunch of wierdo's arn't we! ?

It seems we are ?

I would love to do it. Have you read tess geritsen books? Especially the maura and rizzoli series? I just love reading all about them, none of the gruesome pathology bits put me off!! I think i must be weird LOL x

Earning my crust as a singer, either on the west end stage or making albums in a studio, touring with a company or a 'big band'......

Psssst, JK Rowling DID go to teacher training college - she never passed the course I believe......... so you've one up on her!

When I was younger I wanted to be a teacher, glad I went down the nanny route instead now though. If I wasn't doing this I'd like to work with horses or reptiles.

When I was a kid I had two dream jobs - I either wanted to e a detective (whether a private detective or working for the police force I didn't mind), or a journalist. My thoughts on that were that if I went into pit journalism I'd like to have been either a music or sports journalist, or if I'd gone into broadcast journalism I would love to have been a foreign corrspondent reporting from war zones. Don't know how I ended up in a job that tends to involve mathematical and analytical skills more than anything else, but I would still love to have a career that involved writing for a living in some capacity.
