what is your career or dream career?

Right now, I'm working as a product tester at a software company that makes a flight simulator for hobby radio controlled aircraft. It's pretty fun, but I really don't think that I'll want to be here longer than five years.

I have a couple of dream careers. I would LOVE to be a writer. I love writing short fiction, I love writing art and literature criticism, and I love writing about theology. Right now I'm dabbling in serious writing with my blog, but the long term plan right now is to go to seminary and become a pastor, and spend some time writing as I do that. Being a pastor or a professor of theology would both be excellent too.

Another dream of mine is to start up a coffee shop/church. Monday through Saturday, it would be a coffee shop; Sunday morning we'd have our church service there.
 
My current job title is application's tech 1. aka, clean room rat. i slave away inside a clean room making parts for customers, and huff chemicals. i don't get headaches any more, and they are starting to smell good ;)

i don't see the job going very far. not far enough to be paid enough to do what i want to do.

my dream job....hmm. my dream job would probably be to work for Ferrari. i don't really have a dream job. working in general has never interested me. if i can build my dream home and own a LS460L before im 45 i'll be happy. just have to find a job that i like and pays well enough.

any ideas?
 
Current job: Resort Front Desk Attendant.
Dream Job: Not 100% sure yet, but I want to do something that gives a bit of excitement, and some adventurous experiences, and also makes decent money. Perhaps a manager of a resort one day? I want something that I will love doing, and not get bored of. Money isnt everything if you hate what you do...
 
I have and still want to always become a WRC rally car driver. Or maybe just run the helicopter coverage of the events....I do have my private helicopter license so I on the right track....just in the wrong country :(
 
Current job: I work at the IT Help Desk for the university where I'm a student. Not bad, pay could be better, but for a student, it's not bad.

Dream job: Wouldn't mind being a host of Top Gear. Drive fast cars and be rich and famous :D
 
I would like a job that was creative enough to not get boring or monotonous after three years and left you with a sense of accomplishment.

Or a job that takes care of itself (like one of those high-paying online jobs where you check it once a week) and then volunteer for community projects the rest of the time...
 
Industrial Designer, or general artist. I'm going to art school for the former, so I hope to land a job in that field, obviously.

I would love to be a police office/firefighter, but I don't think that's what I'd ever end up doing.
 
Current job: Unlicensed architect.
Dream job: Licensed architect.

God DAMN it takes a long time to become an architect. Less than a year to go though, assuming I can pass the remaning six licensing exams.
 
I'm currently working for Lufthansa and for four summers I manage operations out of European airports for a group of airlines called "star alliance." Last year was Milan, this summer is Paris-CDG. About three weekends a month, I fly to Germany for a meeting and then fly home the next day. For being only sixteen, I love this job and wouldn't have any problems with doing this is thirty years. Thank you to the federal government for this oppurtunity.
 
Dream Job: Commercial Real Estate Analyst or Financial Advisor

Current Job: Substitute Teacher. (Wow is this job underpaid and how kids have changed)
 
Dream career: Writer, theologian, and professor.
Currently working towards those goals... :)
