So what do you want to be when you "grow up"?
Some people are lucky enough to be working at the job of their dreams. If you're like me, your working at the job that pays the bills.
So let's hear it, what job would you choose if you knew you couldn't fail?

    If I could, I would be an archaeologist. I always wanted to go into Egyptology, but my current interest is local, Civil War archaeology, and Native American archaeology.

    I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up.

    Feeling like I nee to make a change, but it won't be for a while as we are currently focusing on my husband pursuing some continued education to better his carreer path, which would ultimately open up more possibilities for me as we likely won't be as cash strapped.

    I think I need to do something that involves interaction wtih people - financial planner/advisor, bank teller, office manager/retail manager, barista. LOL

    I want someone to pay me to travel the world and do all kinds of dumb things.





    Edit to say: I am hoping to get into International Trade and hopefully get to travel a lot.

    This is really, really masochistic of me...

    But if money wasn't an issue at all...

    I'd finish school, then consider running for office. As in Senate or Congress. From there, I don't know. But that's basically akin to selling my soul, so. >_>

    Negative. I will not grow up.

    However, I wouldn't mind being a writer.
    Or owning a small Bed & Breakfast in the Keys.
    Or any other small business in the Keys.

    I pretty much work for my dream career company, I'm only 28 so of course I'm not like making the big bucks and running the show right now, but I basically plan to work for this company for the rest of my employed life. I work for a successful beer distributor, and I mean really, the beer business is awesome. But if I could have like a dream company on the side, I've always wanted to own a women's fashion boutique. I have a good eye and I know a lot about fashion, trends, and how to market in that field (used to do PR for a jewelry designer), so it's kinda my other "when I grow up" dream. But I'm happy where I am and where my future is headed :smile:

    I want to be a toys R us kid! :bigsmile:

    Kidding, seriously though, I want to be a Vet Tech-I've always wanted to do something with animals but never did. So now I'm (fingers crossed!) going back to school this year or next to become a Vet Tech. Until then, I'm an admin specialist at an enviromental consulting firm
