TTC After a Loss

GTKY-- dream job?

I figure everyone had a pretty busy weekend, and will be relaxing today so how about a GTKY!

What would your dream job be? Do you currently have it? I'll start!

My dream job is to be a Chiropractor. I have gone to them for years and I think it's amazing what they can do. I really realized I would love that job about 7 years ago. My DH and I were getting ready to fly to NYC. My back was hurting, and I had a bad twitch above my lip that wouldn't go away. I went to my chiropractor and he fixed my back AND my twitch! I love the instant gratification and honestly I would love to crack people all day!

  • I would like to be a sex therapist.  I have taken a few classes in it, but to be a school counselor in a small town, and then once one parent finds out about the sex classes, no one would ever let me talk to their child. 

    So the next best thing is a school counselor.

  • Hmm. I'd like to be an author, like others have said. I'd also like to stay involved in the counseling field, but have a small private practice. I'd like to incorperate my interest in natural healing alternatives with that as well. I'd enjoy working at some type of summer camp (I loved being a camp counselor).

    I don't think I have :)
    Currently I am a crisis clinician. Kiddos come into the crisis unit for 3-5 days to stabilize after a crisis. We see a lot of behavioral issues/family conflict, and suicidal thoughts/self harm. I assess for safety and readiness for discharge. I also do a lot of family meetings and connecting with providers. I like it, it can be really intense but rewarding. I've also done individual therapy, school based therapy and in-home work. I like where I am, but once I have living children I think I'll want something a little more predictable. What do you do for work?

  • I think being a travel writer would be fun - I used to freelance for a few travel magazines, specifically the mag for Northwest Airlines.

    I love my job now (I'm a newspaper reporter that covers local government and I also have a column about parenting, plus I teach journalism as an adjunct professor.) But, in a dream world I'd just do my column and be home more with the kids.

  • So, here's the problem - I've always been torn between being a nurse or owning my own cafe. I love baking and seeing people enjoy what I've made, but I also love helping people, so really, either one would be fine for me, but I feel like if I settle that I'll end up wanting to do the other thing *sigh*
    Anything I do though, I'd probably do costume design and writing on the side. Because I can't do just one thing =D

  • I would like to be professional student who just goes to class, learns, and accumulates degrees.
    This. I would love to continue my grad studies and earn my PhD. But we'd have to sell our house, leave our jobs, and move across the country for me to attend a program that would best fit my area of specialty. And, I don't really want to teach, which is the only practical reason to earn a doctorate in my field. So, it's probably not gonna happen.

  • I would love to work with animals! I've thought about becoming a vet tech since I'm already a med lab tech and like animals more than people, but I would cry everyday over sick and dying animals. I've also wanted to work in a fertility lab before I ever became a patient myself. Now I think it would be more rewarding knowing what it's like to have to fight to have a baby myself.

I would LOVE to be an instructional coach working with new teachers and helping them plan lessons. I am currently trying to get this job, but nobody will talk to me since we're moving and I have an out of state teaching credential...grrr.
