    Believe it or not, they actually have those. I did a tour of a pet food manufacturing plant for my pet products column, and they have their nutrition lab there, too. They have cats and dogs for feeding studies (don't worry, nothing cruel), and they have people on staff to socialize and play with the animals.

    Actual Job - Structural Engineer
    Dream Job - the same, but with less managerial nonsense. I love designing nuclear plants, but I get tired of all the administrative red tape associated with it.

    Red tape associated with radioactive materials housing? Gosh darn that red tape, who needs it. :D

    My current job (still in college for engineering) is a lab assistant at a bioengineering lab. But they make me wear gloves and a lab coat and closed toed shoes and all this boring stuff. Ideally I'd like to wear flip flops to work and design my own projects...and actually get paid. That would be nice.
