Whats your ideal job?

Ok so taking into consideration we can’t all have a million pound a year job, or work a 3 day week, are you doing your ideal job and if not what would it be?

I’m just getting a little fed up with all the paperwork and procedures at work. Its not the best paying job in the world and i do work weekends. Yes there are some nice perks but really its just getting me down.

So come on is anyone seriously in their ideal job.

:slight_smile:

i’d like to be a freelance photographer but have the security of a stable income £20,000 a year isn’t really asking much is it???:slight_smile: i could do it though i just need to get out there really…

Definately NOT in my ideal job, in fact, it depresses me that I sit in an office staring at a computer screen doing work that a senior partner will have sold at a rediculous price that is undeliverable, working silly hours etc etc… the pay is decent, but its not all about money.

A mate in work has just gotten what I would think is a great job - commercial strategy for Virgin Atlantic… failing that, I’m hoping when i do my year’s leave of absence next june working for VSO in africa, I’ll realise that its developmental economic work that I want to do!:smiley:

:slight_smile:

think arnies got the best job !!

Sniper…should have joined up years ago…

Trackday instructor :smiley:

Had a great job covering the Finnish and Estonian economies, was interesting, riots in Tallinn, the Finnish EU presidency brought along a lot of interesting press conferences, NATO meeting in Riga, lots of travel. I just didn’t like living in Finland for six years. Asked to relocate to London and am now covering coal and dry bulk shipping. It’s great to be home but god work’s dull. So my ideal job would probably be lobby correspondent.

Kinda spoilt in my job in some ways, reasonable pay, flexi, sick pay, work from home sometimes but…IT’S NOT WHAT I WANT TO BE DOING.

Stuck in front of a screen when I’d rather be doing something with spanners.

Would love to have a little workshop in the countryside working on motorbikes, bicycles and classic cars. Just wouldn’t pay enough. :frowning:

I would like to go back to working as a coach mechanic, but without the bs from the male reps from the Wurth company…

I was encouraged to go for a job as a sales rep for Wurth once, made the choice that wasn’t for me. I was selling at the time but glad to say that my clients liked to see me cus I had a reputation for being straight talking and honest. Reckon I got more sales that way than spouting the sales patter.

Rally driver and/ or professional fluffer :blush:

Doing my non-paid weekend job full time & getting paid for it!

Pit crew for a racing team

Making my own tv programmes/films. I want to have my own ‘Spaced’, the best sitcom ever. :smiley:

anything that doesn’t involve near impossible deadlines, long hours, responsibility, short notice taskings without adequate resources, risk to life, having to wear a uniform, taking orders from peeps who don’t know what their talking about… The list goes on and on…

is lottery winner a job?

If I had a band I’d call it the fluff girls. Sadly I have no musical ability whatsoever.

I’d be a adventure bike tour guide, doing filming of it on the side and sorting out the problems that happen.

oh, just had a thought, politician as they do fk all and have an expense/entertainments account etc. Talking st for a living, I could do that with one hand tied behind me back! The good thing is, if you fk something up you never admit to it directly by talking about something completely different when questioned and it’s nigh on impossible to get sacked, well if your in the Labour party anyway. So, if you get pied off with the current position you just f**k it all up and get promoted to a better position.

Jobs a good 'n.

I think I’ve already got my ideal job :slight_smile:

I work for the Ambulance Service, it’s a fairly easy job and I get to drive round London using blue lights and sirens…Oh, and I only work 3 days a week :D:w00t::cool:
