If you could have a different profession...

I've always thought if I wasn't a nurse I'd like to be a firefighter, quite different but then at the same time still a public service.

When I was growing up I always wanted to work in a sweet factory but I grew out of that!

What other job would you want to do if you weren't a nurse? Just curious.:nurse:

Some different ones, that's for sure. Some of them would include:

1. Court reporter

2. Animal control officer (like on Animal Precinct)

3. Owner/operator of one of those little silver diner places

4. Air host

This list isn't all-inclusive or exhaustive. If I think of more, I'll be happy to post them! :D

I'd love to be able to work at home, create my own working hours, earn as much (if not more) than the average nurse, and not have to deal with the abusive public very often.

I think I would like to try being an:

Accountant

Paralegal

Medical Coder

Own a old fashion Malt shoppe or Deli

Thats all I can think of for now:)

All I've ever wanted to do (besides nursing) was, and still is, professional writing. I've been published in a number of newspapers and a couple of magazines, but if I could make a living from writing, I'd give up nursing in a heartbeat! Especially after a day like today............~sigh~..........

Wait a minute, I take that back: I want Samantha Brown's job on the Travel Channel. She's the girl who does the "World's Great Hotels" show, and that must be just about the best job on the planet!! Imagine getting PAID to visit all the best hotels and resort the world has to offer, eat the finest foods, and be tended to by hot guys in open shirts and shorts............yeah, I could live with that.

I would love to be a landscape designer...I love to garden!

I would be a travel consultant to groups and be required to visit many exotic places to ensure the quality of my referals

I would like to be a writer, or a professional cook. What I actually would like to be doing is Security Operator/Contractor (Paramilitary). They did not have them around when I got out of the service like they do now. I really do miss runnin' and gunnin' at times....strange but living on the edge really brings the joys of life into clearer focus.

Long haul trucker

Paid assassin

Cat hoarder

I could proabably combine all three if I owned my own truck.

Veterinarian

If I get the chance to reincanate, I would be an architect or an interior decorator or the biggest one of all - WORK WITH DOLPHINS. Too bad I'm not 20 years old and would never be again.

Paid assassin

Cat hoarder

I could probably combine all three if I owned my own truck.

:lol2:

I used to work in animal welfare, and one of the risk factors to hoarding was working in a "caring" profession - nursing was one of them. :bugeyes:

independently wealthy!!!!
