So I saw this some were and I thought it may be interesting to see what you guys have to say about this.

Forget about money or any sort of judgement. Just what fits you and only you. For some of you, it's possible you already are in the perfect occupation for you, who knows.

Share?

As much as I love working in technology, it's way too hectic and "connected" to be a dream job. I suppose I'd want to be an animal caretaker on a tropical island...Basically, me, tons of adorable animals that I choose and transport to Bora Bora.

I guess I'm lucky enough to already have my dream jobs :funone2: Environment modeller and character/creature concept artist for games and movies.
Doing lighting for movies is fun too, maybe in the future also wanna try my hand at character modelling (but everyone wants the job of character modeller). I'd shoot myself if they asked me to rig them though

Unrealistically, professional student.

If we"re taking money and judgement out of the equation I would 100% want to be a merry maid. I LOOOOVE cleaning. I just feel so at peace after a serious cleaning. And accomplished. I just feel better if I'm in a kitchen and I know all the surfaces have been disinfected. Everytime I'm at a firends house or apartment and their kitchen is dirty I'm secretly dying to clean it. I would LOVE if someone asked me to help them clean.
Most jobs that require physical labor are looked down on, but i think they're awesome. You can daydream, listen to the radio, talk with the other merry maids, while you're still doing your work. And there's no stress! Plus I get to see inside a million people's houses, which is perfect for me. Idk why, but I love seeing houses. When I was in middle school I would make my mom take me to open houses every weekend and critique them.

I find your avatar really connects with everything you've described here. Very suiting.

Something I figured would be a pretty awesome job: Electronics engineer for things they're going to eventually send in space (satellites, space station parts, space vehicles that SpaceX are designing, etc).

I figure the easiest route to get this "dream" job would be to work in systems design for a communications satellite company like COM DEV here in Canada, or government contractors like Lockheed Martin or Boeing in the USA.

I am very close to achieving this dream job, since I finish my MSEE next year sometime.

Making route/cave maps for Game Freak/Pokemon games! I don't even care about the pay, the tilesets they use are just too cute, and some of the maps they've made.... W-well, they could definitely be better :p

Or just sitting here doing fuck all and getting paid for it! That would be a wonderful job~

Dream:
Astronaut/Cosmonaut... Psychonaut... I think I just want to explore. :p

Perhaps a writer of travel books? Idk.

Reality: Teaching primary/secondary school mathematics. America really needs some energy and enthusiasm to be instilled into our next generation to inspire these children to not be afraid to be mathematicians or scientists.
