    Occupation: Health Physicist
    Dream Job: Own a nudist resort.

    For those wondering:
    Health physicists work in a variety of disciplines, including research, industry, education, environmental protection, and enforcement of government regulations. Although the health physicist usually concentrates in one of these disciplines, a professional health physicist typically performs duties in several areas.

    In research, health physicists investigate principles by which radiation interacts with matter and living systems. Health physicists also study environmental levels of radioactivity and the effects of radiation on biological systems on earth and in space. This information is used in many ways, ranging from designing radiation-detection instrumentation to establishing radiation-protection standards.

    Industrial or applied health physicists draw upon their technical knowledge and varied experience to advise and make recommendations to management regarding methods and equipment for use in radiation work. The health physicist also assists engineers and scientists in designing facilities and new radiation-control programs. As the primary consultant during any radiation emergency, a health physicist commonly has total control of the involved area.

    Health physicists working in education develop and instruct training programs for future health physicists. They also provide any necessary training for radiation workers and the general public. These individuals instruct workers and other health physicists on the level of risk associated with particular radiation sources and methods used to reduce risk. One goal is to help individuals understand the relative degree of risk of radiation exposure. In most cases, the risk is no greater than that found in other industries.

    Health physicists who work in regulatory enforcement must have knowledge and experience concerning all types of radiation hazards in order to establish guidelines for adequate radiation control. These guidelines help society receive the greatest benefits from radiation sources at the lowest possible exposure.

    Occupation: Office Manager/Bookkeeper
    Dream Job: No frickin' clue! Hoping to be a stay-at-home mom in the near future but while I think it's very important to raise my children, I'm nervous about it. Plus, I don't really consider that a job; yes, it's what I "do" but my definition of a job is that you get a paycheck.
