Jobs
Right now I'm an engineer...I told H recently I would love to quit my job to become a nanny and wedding planner.
I know this is random and ridicous sounding, but does anyone else ever feel like this? Like trying/doing something entirely different?
Re: Jobs
Yup.
I was talking about this with my friend a few weeks ago. But I have a feeling that 10yrs from now I'll be doing something completely different.
It makes me sad, but I feel like I should be doing something better. Instead of worrying about petty things, I should focus on the environment/animals/bettering peoples lives. I dunno.
This is me 100% too!

Oh I think about this constantly...I work in the mortgage industry and it's certainly not my dream job but just pays the bills and is easy. I am always thinking I should do something else, I'd love to be an events planner/wedding planner, I'd love to do social work for children or I went to school to be a teacher and recently I started wondering if it's something I should go back for. I think about this all the time yet never act on it. Maybe one day...
This made me lol, but only cuz I totally agree
I love the IDEA of wedding planning. Very Father of the Bride. However, I remind myself that EVERY customer is a stressed woman and probably her mother and if one mistake is made, you've ruined the "happiest day of her life". Eek-nope. I used to be a project manager for an office furniture company. I would deal with some $HIT when you'd tell someone their desk chair would be 2 days late. I can't imagine telling a bride that her ice sculpture melted in the van or the cake fell or whatever.
If I could do it all again I'd be a history teacher. One of my biggest regrets.
i definitely could not be a wedding planner! planning my own was quite enough wedding for me! hahaha! i loved every minute of it, even the stressful minutes, but i just dont think i'd do a good job...at all.
i lovelovelove the field i'm in. i'm a social worker at a hospital in town, its pretty much a perfect fit most days. today was slightly insane and i'm blaming the full moon... i always think though that it would be awesome to run a summer camp. i worked at a few camps in college and just had a blast, what an awesome forever job that would be!
I'm with you ladies on the wedding planner idea.
Truly, though, I can't think of another job that I'd love to do. Maybe archaeologist. That's just a bit too similar to what I'm already going to be doing though. For my dream job, all I can think of is working as a conservator somewhere really awesome, like that Natural History Museum in London or something.
