If you could retrain to do any other job what would you be?

If you could have any job you wanted regardless of your current ability and any costs needed would be covered, what would you do and why?

What is your current job and how do you think your new job could change you life?

To get you started...I'm at university at the moment and I work part time in a cafe. I would love to have my own secondhand book shop. I would have a cafe in there and the policy would be 'Read for free while you drink your tea'. Hopefully people would pick up a book while they had their drinks and would find something they wanted to buy. I would run reading groups for all ages and genres and hopefully inspire people to really get into books.

    Something which requires working outdoors (preferably somewhere warm!) or maybe a stunt woman........I've recently 'woken' my adventurous side, and I'd love to do it for money!

    My current job is a stagnant, mind numbing routine of doing exactly the same thing everyday, run by people who would have been 'slave traders' back in the day......however I'm glad I have a job at all!

    My new job would not fill me with dread every morning, day and night, so I would be ecstatically happy and jump out of bed to get there!

    I think I'd like to become a pilot. I have always wanted to fly, this way I could do it for a living!

    Another thing I would like to do is to have a museum-type art building. It would have a room where there's a beutiful view of a garden and people could go there to paint. There would be many more rooms with inspirational works and music to encourage inspiration and people would pay to come and do whatever type of art they like. Also, I would like to have food places in there from every corner of the world. Kind of like a cultural experience. Maybe also some stuff about different religions and art.

    Wow, awesome question. I would LOVE to be a detective or work with the Medical Examiners office. I am SO nosey already that I would love to be in the middle of an investigation - not me personally, but as my job. I would love to be there to be support for families and victims of violence, I recently went on a tour of a Morgue. It was sad, interesting, and exciting all at once. It is an amazing job and it takes amazing people to do it.

    I would retrain as a classical opera singer so I could be as weird as Klaus Nomi :)
