What is your dream job(s)?
It can be a real job that currently exists or one that doesn't yet exist but you wish it existed. You can want more than one dream job.
@PhoenixSerenity I've always wondered what it would be like to be a nuclear physicist
@PhoenixSerenity I want to be a rabbit herder, moving my little bunny friends gently from one grassy knoll to the next with a soothing rendition of 'Bright Eyes' on my harmonica.
@PhoenixSerenity I still wanna be an astronaut
@PhoenixSerenity like many, I don't dream of labor, but something where I could keep working on and driving boats while also helping protect animals and restore ecosystems in a constructive, hands-on, non-NGO way
or something where I could do the same thing on land half the time, o water the rest of the time.
basically I somehow need to be on & around water, and also in the forest, all the time.
I would enjoy being a personal DJ to plants🪴 🌿
@PhoenixSerenity
Send Snoop Dogg an email; he hires people for weird stuff, I bet he'd dig the idea of a personal weed-crop DJ.
@silvermoon82 I wouldn't work for him. He played for Trump/MAGA.
@PhoenixSerenity
Oh, gross. Disappointing, too, he's shown potential in other aspects.
Honestly I really like my work but I dislike my job. My dream would be to keep doing the same work but without the job parts of it.
This might sound weird, but I'd also like it if my coding job involved an hour of carrying heavy objects every day. It would keep me fit, and I find that manual labour clears my head and lets me concentrate.
90% data engineer / 10% building site labourer. The dream work.
@PhoenixSerenity
Book reader. Not reviewer. Just a reader. Pay me to read books. I’m already doing it for free. Why not get paid?
Just gonna leave this here…
@PhoenixSerenity any remote job with a co-op not using corporate software or mired in ethical concerns, male *dancer*, luxury carpenter, couch tester, or some combination of the above maybe
@PhoenixSerenity I have applied for my dream job but it’s a long shot so I will be very lucky to get an interview. It’s as a qualitative researcher using arts-based data collection methods.
@PhoenixSerenity Dog care, maybe? But since it's a dream job, I'd want a world where no dogs ever get hurt, get sick, or turn into stardust. 🐶✨
Professional dilettante.
Wood and soft stone carving, writing short fiction, building weird music with field recordings and drones, small event/communal cook, simple chemical extractions and synthesis.
I like my current work, though; I just wish that the job was structured very differently.
@PhoenixSerenity my dream job would be comfortable retirement.
I'm tired of the dream being a job.
my standard answer to "what would you like to be when you grow up" was always "retired".
these days, i want to be retired without having to "grow up".
@mousey @PhoenixSerenity this! When i was 6 years old, asked what i want to be when i am grown up, i answered „a grandpa, sitting all day in a rocking chair reading!“ i never changed that dream. But mayba, you know, i don’t actually need the grandkids or stuff like that…
@codingGarden @mousey @PhoenixSerenity haha same, I said "hermit" ya know, the one dispensing wisdom from a cave.
I'd be a great anxious chicken counselor.
@PhoenixSerenity "Oops, sorry, can't help this one. Chuck it in the pot!"
@gooba42 I would probably adopt as a pet instead. It can live under my deck.
@PhoenixSerenity Also good but I'm still hungry...
@gooba42 This ain't a restaurant.
@PhoenixSerenity assisting and connecting people.
doing biochemical research in a lab.
