I would have kept trying to get back into the military, I think, had I not gone back to RN school - so I'd like to say I'd be a public affairs/protocol officer in the Air Force. I love all the pomp and circumstance and who-walks-in-after-who and sits-on-who's-right-or-left; I love tradition and the whole rent-a-crowd thing.
Barring that, probably a teacher. That's what I started out in, anyway.
A linguist or interpreter. I've always been good at learning or acquiring new languages (I spent 2 weeks in Germany and by the end I could follow conversations somewhat, having no experience with the language previously). I'm mostly fluent in Spanish, even though it's never been spoken in my home and I've never spent significant time in a Spanish-speaking country. I gravitated towards nursing because it's applied biology/anatomy/physiology, which I've also always been good at, so I think if I weren't a nurse I would gravitate towards my other aptitude

:rolleyes:Ok...SO I am curious because at least once a month, I don't want to be a nurse. Maybe something triggers that or IDK, but I actually think I could be a singer. Or just travel the world...but I would need alot of money for that. Maybe a farmer- I know sounds crazy but...sometimes I just want to be free like that.
I went to school for 6 years and studied art...then I made the switch because I knew it would be a "fall-back career.
Art is an unpredictable market so...
Now...wait a minute...for all you hecklers out there, I enjoy being a nurse, and this "fall-back" thing was when I first started. My view has changed, so don't post anything passing judgement.
So....yeah.... If you weren't a nurse what would you be? (esp. in this dry desert of an economy)
