Choosing a career

[RacerX]

I noticed that many of you young-uns are at that point in your lives where you have to make career choices. Apprenticeships, University, tafe etc there is a mindboggling array of choices. Here is RacerXs foolproof way to choose a career that will prove happy and fulfilling.

What you do is imagine you have 2 million dollars in the bank, say you won lotto or something. Now that you are financially secure the idea is to think what you would do with your time, ie what would you each day that interests you, and you enjoy. Whatever that thing is you should think of a job that involves it.
eg, If you like working on cars you could work in the automotive industry.

So what would you do if you had 2 million dollars?



note : This is all shamelessly ripped off the movie Officspace.

watch footy, sleep and eat well.

Open another shop with various collectables. Thinking about doing that anyway but 2 million would make it a damn sight easier to set up!

If Channel 7 hadn't lost the rights, you'd be a shoo-in for Robbo's job.

Take flying lessons.

it would involve a lot of plastic surgery and dance classes....

Professional television critic?

Nah a few years back I was convinced that I had the potential to become Channel 7's number one female football journalist!

I think I'll just keep buying those lotto tickets for now...

I wouldn't work. I'd buy my house, travel the world, and settle down to watch all the sport I could.

Maybe I could be a boundary rider. I reckon I'd be good at eating pies, asking dumb questions at half time, eating pies and not knowing any of the players on the interchange bench.

Well, ok, it'd be a challenge to do all of that, but I'm up to it.

Oh yeah, and eating pies too.
