Post What would you do...

...if you could have your perfect career? Most of us are stuck in jobs that we hate or even enjoy, but they're not our perfect careers. What would yours be?

Mine would be owning my own web/graphic design company. Having a smaller work force, but with enough clients to be sitting very comfortably. I'm working on this dream, just not quite there yet.

What's yours?

Re: What would you do...

I believe I have found the job that was meant for me as a driving instructor.

What could improve it are a few more hours, but with the website I'm building on driving tips, I believe that will start to compensate for the few hours and make it easier for me to have time to do other things.

Re: What would you do...

I would also love to be A F1 driver but its probably one of the most exclusive careers on the planet. However, I'm going to school for mechanical engineering as well and I want to be head race engineer of ferrari formula one.

Re: What would you do...

Open up a garage at my house.....the only employee would be me. I would work all day if I want, or if I want the day off I take the day off. I would do general automotive repair but focus primarily on performance. I would also do bodywork and paint. The jobs I would choose to take on would be few. I would probably make less money than it takes to keep the shop open, but that wouldnt matter. The majority of the vehicles I would work on would be mine.
