I'd be a professional bowler. I used to be pretty good in my youth before I lost interest.

Y'know, I've thought a lot about this since the thread was posted. I think I have my dream job. I love archaeology.
However, if I ever get bored with it, I'll go into food. I'd be a wicked pastry chef, don't you think?  And my mentor is already planning for the restaurant I'll be opening years from now!

I really love the job that I have as a machinist/toolmaker/artist blacksmith, being able to make something useful or pretty to look at with my hands is a very satisfying and fulfilling job and hobby.The only thing better would be being able to make a living as an artist

w00t!!! I just learned that I'm going to be working again on the same project as last year this summer for Parks Canada!!!!!! It's really a dream job!  (And even better, the boss is trying to get me higher wages than last year!  )

I wish I were still working primarily with high functioning autistic children.

My ultimate dream job (since kindergarten) was to be a Veterinarian. I'll be working on my Veterinary Technician degree in the fall...perhaps I will go back to school and work more towards the whole Vet thing again...

Hmmmm, good question.
I enjoy helping people and like being creative. I like making people laugh. I like working with computers.
What job lets me do all that?

Working for joecartoon.com or some other website that will pay you to draw short cartoon flicks that make people laugh.
I've always had a problem with this question as well. I love reading and watching movies. Other than being a critic (which I hate critics), I can't think of a job that would let me read and watch movies all day. Though I'm fairly happy being a blue collar warehouse worker and moving up the ranks to white collar. I'm one of those odd people that find satisfaction in working up the chain rather than being hired in at the position and not knowing anything about the system.

in reply to PF I am a physics by training and software engineer by employ. There are no real jobs in physics.
Actually I am enjoying my current job as much as I think I could enjoy any job that isn't professional test pilot. I get to travel all over the US, (just spent 5 weeks in Hawaii). Get home for most weekends. Do something meaningful that helps people, and get paid well for it.
But professional test pilot in a heartbeat. Maybe Chef.

When I grow up, I wanna be a high school or community college Biology teacher. I am 3/4ths the way there, I just have a little bit of university to finish up and student teaching. Someday, oh yes, it will be mine....
Either that or a lactation consultant--another "passion" of mine. This week alone I am going to 2 breastfeeding support groups and a breastfeeding peer supporter class, so I kinda am being a lac consult. just not paid.
All that with a side job of being a herpetologist.
