What job do you have if you have one, and what job would you want?

[Anon_Guy]

I'm 25, I have a desk job in a field I have no passion for, because it's the only job I've found.
I still don't know what job I'd like to have given the opportunity.
Son in a rich family so I don't actually need to have a job I guess.

I don't want to give away my current job (we'll go with "science") but I would love to do something with my hands. Carpentry or metalwork or something. Or be a pilot.

 

[yowai]

Right now I'm jobless. I'd want something that doesn't have to involve lots of contact with people. There was a job I wanted in the summer where I'd be supposed to work in pharmacy putting meds on shelves out of boxes and just keeping the place clean, sounded nice but I didn't get it. If I had a different personality and better qualifications I'd want to work somewhere that has to do with ecology, marine biology, or maybe be a musician in a band and travel around the world just having fun and playing concerts lol. Or something to do with programming so that I could work from home

Works at a call centre doing Remote It support. It's far from the worst job I had and it is rewarding helping people. But very stressful and we have to deal with the occasional Karens.

I have this story in my head for over a decade and I dream of publishing it but when I actually start writing I get discourage or distracted. I probably have re-written the outline over 20 times now

I currently work in language and localization. Language is one of the few strengths I have, so it's not too bad, and my colleagues are kind and decent people. As for my dream job, that's difficult to say. I've never really had any vision when it comes to occupation, but I like helping people and have spent some years in auxiliary roles. I used to work in healthcare, but when management started demanding employees receive mandatory injections, I left that field. Quite frankly, I'm not sure how anyone could be comfortable with that sort of thing.

Also been employed at Amazon. Not counting small part-time jobs like garbage truck loader.

I work as a loan officer for a credit union. It's nothing special. I wanted to be a teacher when I was younger, it never happened honestly. I want to be a writer, maybe publish my poetry, but that isn't going to happen either. Truthfully, I don't want to do anything or be anything.

 

[crayonscrayons]

I work customer service
I would like to be in a emo band, but like if I was born earlier so I could have my band in the 2000s
or a journalist for emo bands in the 2000s

 

[Promised Heaven]

I work in the back fridge room of a popular retail chain.

I would love to own a small health focused café outside a major city.

 

[scottchy]

Been working in bullshit retail management all my life up until a few months ago when I had a mental breakdown.

I'm in the process of trying to discover what I want to do.
I may go back to school and seek employment in the medical field
But I don't know

 

[Arrival03]

Currently unemployed. Want to be a musician, but it's near impossible to make a living off of that.

 

[ForgottenAgain]

My job is my dream job - videogame programmer. I'm pleased with my accomplishments and the work has good benefits, however I'm not nearly as fulfilled as I dreamed I'd be.

 

[ijustwishtodie]

I'm not employed and I hope that I ctb before I have to deal with all of the bullshit that comes with work. I never had a dream job because I simply don't want to work

 

[scottchy]

I would be OK (obviously not ideal) with having a job that paid less but I was happy.
I'm happier now not working than when I was working a high paying stressful job but happiness doesn't pay the bills.
I struggle to know where to start. I want that job that gives me purpose more than anything but I have no idea what I need to do to find it.
