Putting money, age, time, schooling, talent/ability, and family commitments behind what would be your dream job? What is your job right now, do you like it?

I'm in my second year of pharmacy school. Pharmacy is not my dream job you know, but i have a kid and im married and working as a waitress is not enough money for a kid and the lifestyle i want to live, so i had to choose a career fast within a few days i just choose pharmacy, i had the grades and i took all the classes to get into pharm school, luckily you only need 5x credits to get in which is about 2 years of undergrad work so i said what the hell, i took the pcat and scored pretty high, applied, went for an interview, and before you know it im in pharmacy school, and hey i'm helping my community in the process. 45 dollars and hour starting pay doesnt sound to shabby, if i make it through school...

So anyway, my dream job would be a photographer for huge fashion industries such as vouge or covergirl. I would just love to see a person all dolled up and in costume on top of the grandstairway in rome, while i capture the moment, light, angles, expression, etc...

To be honest, I've gone after every dream job I've wanted. I tried modeling - couldn't stand the way they treated me. I tried performing arts, dance specifically - still studying and working on my technique. Never did get around to singing in the clubs, love to sing

But I am a massage therapist and LOVE it. My next adventure is working for MAC. I've wanted to for years and have interviewed, but just didn't have enough confidence, knowledge, experience. So, I've been studying up on the industry and practicing like mad and as soon as I move back west this fall, I'm going for it!

To own and edit a women's lifestyle magazine. I've just always thought Cosmo, Glamour and so on follow such obvious routes with their stories, the things they focus on and the way they present themselves. I think women of greater variety are owed a lot more than the bullshit they print.

If not, to own a small business - like a boutique. I love the idea of going to one place everyday and to have working hours, but also the freedom of creativity lol. Also, i think it's cute to pass businesses down generation by generation - I always wished someone in my family had owned one!

I plan on staying home with my kids when I get married. But owning a little boutique would be fun.

I'm a mechanical engineer and this is my dream job. I worked hard at school and at my job and I'm glad that my efforts have paid off. Eventually though, I would like to have my own engineering consulting firm with my husband who's also a mechanical engineer.

I would love to have a little store that sold make-up, jewelry and little odds and ends. right now I'm working toward law school, and since I love law and suing people who have wronged me, it is my back-up dream job

I study business admonistration and work at the offices now - office manager, receptionist, program assistant, translator. Its ok, its temporary, as i cant study and work because of college timetable, and it gives me money. I thought office job would be better though - you know, imagining those huge office buildings, big corporations.. On the real companies are not all like that.

I always wanted to be a doctor or a nurse. But i was bad at chemistry, plus here you gotta study a lot and only then can start making money, and its so little first time
