    A folk singer. Somehow that didn't pan out and I ended up in retail management.

    Ah well. Life is what happens while you're making other plans!

    It changes weekly. Growing up it varied (Professional figure skater, FBI Agent, Doctor, Psychiatrist, Jockey, Race horse trainer, etc.) Currently I am a Phlebotomist, but if I could do anything in the world I would be a writer and work for myself. (I'm getting there....it will happen soon.) But I still have those days when I consider the FBI/Doctor/Horse Trainer gigs haha

    I wanted to be a criminal psychologist, then a forest ranger. I was an EMT for a while, I wanted to be a paramedic but went for nursing instead. I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up! After having worked in the public since I was 14, I'm 28 now, I think I would like a job where I could be right by myself, but only for like 5 days, because I like people, for the most part.

    I'm the same as you....I actually wanted to be an ER Doc but the schooling was just kicking my *kitten*....science is not my thing, blood and gore does. Phlebetomy is a good start, but I'm wanting to become an EMT.

    I wanted to be a pediatrician and a hairdresser on the weekends, and a Solid Gold Dancer in my spare time.

    I ended up being a sales assistant until I got laid off and desperately looking for fulltime employment.
