If you could quit today, and move to a job you think you'd enjoy- and earn the same salary- what would it be?

While I enjoy what I'm doing today- I think I'd liek to be a truck driver. Perhaps not one of the cross country types, but an owner/operator running about 5 - 6 hours a day.

One of my cousin's does this, he has a contract for FedEx, and he said he brings in anywhere from $8,000 - $10,000 a month, and some months he does $12,000.

While my love of big rigs has nothing to do with the money, that's a pretty nice incentive. I guess it's in my blood... My father was an OTR truck driver- and I was "this" close to becoming one myself, before I got the call that allowed me to stay in my field (telecommunications).

Maybe it isn't as cool as it looks, being a truck driver. But, it does seem like fun- especially if you can afford to have the chrome shop mafia pimp your ride. Anybody see that Ironman rig?

What would you like to do?

 

I would like to be a Stripper pole... Don't really want to get paid for it, as I would chalk it up to community service.

 

I'd love to be a machinist making custom parts for high end boats and cars. :o

 

I would like to do something in Forestry Science. When I got my degree in environmental engineering, I thought I was going to be looking at birds and trees and pretty water all day. WRONG! I sit in front of a computer all day working on permit applications and response plans, frickin yipee. Even when I do get out of the office, it's usually to some god for saken hole of a company which should be blown up, burned down and forgot about.

I love to be out in the woods.

Or like Hersh, a log truck driver.

 

I take back the Stripper Pole comment.

I would much rather be a "mole" in the Obama camp...

 

 

That's only gonna be a 5-month gig though...

 

I would like to be a condom tester. If that is not possible, then a pro golfer.

 

Condom tester...pitcher, or catcher? Or both?

 

A gun tester... imagine getting paid every day to shoot guns...

 

Leave it to you to even think of that possibility!

 

I'd like to be a car salesman.
I'd walk to everybody I see and say,

"What have I got to do to put you in that car today?"

 

I would rather be a farmer.

 

I have actually had that used on me. When I told him, he failed to comply.

 

Well, I could do it.

I'm double-jointed!
