Hi everyone:

I just wanted to start a fun thread for once (mine are usually venting about my job hehe)...

I'm curious... What would your dream job be if you weren't an RN?

I'll go first: I'd love to own a little boutique by the beach or in a city. I love the idea of owning my own business and I think it would be fun!

anyone else have a dream job? :)

An archeologist;-)

Specializes in ED, Telemetry,Hospice, ICU, Supervisor.

Replace Anthony Bourdain on No Reservations.

Its a sweet job, Travel Channel pays you to film stuff to do and explore on their credit. You would not even have to pay me.

Specializes in Cardiology and ER Nursing.

I would specialize in doing absolutely nothing.

Specializes in ER, TRAUMA, MED-SURG.
Independently wealthy world-traveling gigolo.

Definetly!! :yeah::yeah:

Anne, RNC

There was a similar/exact same thread a few months ago and i cant remember what i said. Dream job would be to have a ton of inherited wealth where i never had to work. or a pop star.

Specializes in Med/Surg, Geriatric, Hospice.
The only reason I became a nurse instead of a veterinarian was because I didn't think I could put animals (especially healthy ones) to sleep... now I wish I had done what I really loved.... c'est la vie right? Never really wanted to be an MD though... a naturopathic veterinarian is my dream.... :paw:

Me.too.

The only reason I'm not a vet or vet tech is because I could never euth. an animal. :crying2:

I want a job where I can go travel and stay at various resorts for a week or so at a time and then report on whether they should keep their 5 star rating or not. When I tire of travel (doesn't everybody eventually), I would take breaks from that and just do my "other" gig, which would be to rate clothes/cars etc. People would pay me to choose what I thought was best and I'd negotiate a fee to be paid to me for wearing/using my choices and being seen in public with these choices. :D

I also have a fantasy that involves being on call to go undercover to healthcare facilities and then decide who I think needs to be gone. I'd get rid of anybody who I feel is making working as a nurse miserable. I'd walk up to them whether MD, nurse, UAP, admin. and say "You're Out" just like Heidi Klum says it. :idea:

Specializes in Peds, School Nurse, clinical instructor.

I would be a Walmart greeter...how fun and stress free to say " hello and welcome to Walmart" and hand out smiley stickers to kids....yup, that's my dream job :smokin:

Specializes in mental health + aged care.

I'd love to be a mum. Hopefully I can actually manage that one day, producing child is harder than it seems sometimes :(

Professional Beach Bum/Ocean Wave Tester (sell umbrellas on the side for 30.00 a pop to buy food).

If I had to work-I'd probably go back for something where I could work with animals or maybe outdoor photography (elephants in Africa)---that could even lead to my own "I shouldn't be alive or Wilderness Survival show! lol

Specializes in COS-C, Risk Management.

Stay at home mom. Did it for four of the best years of my life and would dearly love to go back to it full time.

I would love to blog about health/wellness and living a simple off the grid type life and I absolutely love the idea of having an animal sanctuary for hospice patient's animals...maybe it could also offer animal therapy to others(?)...Maybe perhaps start my own home care business. We'll see. :)

I am so excited to be an RN and make this part of my dream come true!
