Your dream job

ChilliJonI hate the Vikings!

A job where work never feels like work. Almost like having 7 days off each week.

After love of family, I've got 2 things I really dig. Golf and cooking (grilling ANYTHING if we're being techincal) Parameters. Packer Season Ticket sales doesn't count. Neither does Tim Tebows PR handler, Brett Favres landscaper, or trophy polisher for the Vikings.

Mine would be:

1. Teaching Professional at Whistling Straights in Wisconsin.

1A. Running a little grilled fish taco indoor/outdoor bar in the Florida Keys.

1B. BBQ joint loacated anywhere USA.

Let's post them! None of us are doing what we would love to be doing. If you are, then post that too and congrats.

I loved bar tending/manning the grill at a small town steakhouse. It just didn't pay the bills.

If money were not object, I would probably garden more (on the small acreage I bought) and can the goods to give away. We do that now already on a small scale. Couple cows and pigs for eating.

MaynardPathetic, an embarrassment to true Packer fans

1) Singer/songwriter (recording and small-scale touring)
2) Music producer/engineer/editor/live sound engineer (no real training, though)
3) Music supervisor for films
4) Some sort of writer, probably poetry since I don't have a long attention span

I always thought it would be neat to have a little wine/craft beer lounge with a nice room for acoustic music. Not a regular bar, something mellower, but not elitist. Then I could get to run sound for performers and maybe perform myself, yet have a business that actually had a chance at success. But I know from friends that bars and restaurants are a paint to run.

Of course, I suppose the risk is that if I did get to do this stuff everyday for pay, I would end up hating that too.

I would love any kind of writing job. Novelist, journalist, play-write\screenplays, satire, hell I would even like being a blogger even though I hate what the internet has done to print media.

Back when it used to be just Topps & Bowman I thought it would be cool to own a sports memorabilia shop. Now that there's like 87 different companies producing cards & collectibles, well screw that noise.

Statistician for Brewers or Packers. Love working with numbers, love sports - would be a great job to be at every game and keep stats.

I always thought being one of the geeks at Elias Sports might be kind of fun, too. Pull random stats that nobody really cares about.

I'm working my ass off so I can retire at 62 and:

--Garden

--Walk 5 miles a day.

--Travel

--Watch Packers/Brewers/Badgers

Those ain't jobs, but they're what I want to do.
