What is your current field of work, and if you could change it to your dream job, what would you do instead?

Right now, I am a 4th grade teacher. I teach all subjects (reading, writing, math, science, social studies, and health). I am the grade level math leader, as well. My dream job would be middle school math or a math interventionist. I love math and have a passion for helping kids love and understand math, too!

Full time student 😂😂 eventually I'll be a counselor! My dream job is being a counselor so I'm definitely working toward the goal.

I have been a mental health therapist for 9 years now and have also worked in psychiatric research. I decided I wanted to be a therapist when I was in 7th grade and never changed my mind. So I really can’t imagine doing anything different but if I had to change jobs I would be a news anchor.

I am a homemaker and it is my "dream job"

I'm an engineer in a tech support-like role. I don't design things. My dream job would probably be something with animals. Like yes, I would love to be a cat cuddler lol

I’m a CPA and do audit and accounting/consulting work for businesses. As far as realistic jobs right now, I wouldn’t trade it. It’s incredibly flexible and I get to work with a lot of different people and companies. However, my dream would be to move to a beach area and run a restaurant or a small hotel. Maybe in retirement!

Loving all these responses! 

I’m in education leadership & coaching. I’ve worked very hard to get here & love the flexibility. But my dream job is definitely to be a homemaker!  *In a fantasy world I’d also love to be a food & travel writer, or work as a peacemaker in some capacity for the UN.

I am an elementary school teacher. I taught fifth grade up until last week, now I am looking for another teaching job. I love teaching, but if I could do anything, I'd be an actor. I love playing a character, telling a story and connecting with audiences. I wouldn't want to be famous, just earn a decent paycheck.

I'm on a communications team at a tech company, working with research and leveraging it internally as well as doing some of our own analysis.

My dream job would probably be something creative and hands on like creating furniture. Or in my field, marketing research or something basically taking what I'm doing and accelerating it/focusing on primary research - likely at a firm/as a consultant, not in house.

I’m a registered nurse, I currently work for a large insurance company doing telephonic case management for our members.  It’s nice because I get to WFH right now but sometimes it’s painful calling people all day every day.

I’m pretty sure I already had my dream job.  I was in the military for 9yrs and then got out to move back to New England to be close to family.  I do miss the military a lot.  Working in the civilian world isn’t not really doing it for me.  I’m still a reservist so I get a touch of the military every month though.
