Are you living the dream (Job)?

What did you want to be as a child? Doctor
What did you want to be in high school? Doctor
What did you want to be after high school? Doctor
What are you doing now? Scientist at a hospital
So if you aren’t one of those working your dream job what stopped you? During college I finally realized that Doctors dont ever stop working, I wanted a life, so I pursued went the science route, even though its basically the same route as a doctor would take. I'm much happier not being on call, not working weekends, not working 80hrs a week. Much happier

a friend of mine kind of went through the same thing, but he's actually a doctor but he's going to be a psychiatrist so that he can keep somewhat regular hours

my boss works all day, then goes home, works more, comes in on the weekends to finish up charts, some weekends hes on call for weekends. He easily puts in 80hrs a week

What did you want to be as a child?

Scientist, Mathematician, or Meterologist.

What did you want to be in high school?

Pretty much the same, although I did enjoy Chemistry most.

What did you want to be after high school?

A chemist.

What are you doing now?

I am indeed a chemist...but I also am a writer, singer, producer, director, vlogger...all stuff that I enjoy doing. However, I would honestly drop the chemistry lifestyle to take my other talents to The C&R Show. That is now my dream job.

I would drop my day job to work on the C&R show doing production shit and making material for the show and helping Spot produce and just do shit to make the show better. I would need to make what I make now though, well maybe a little less.

What did you want to be as a child? Archeologist
What did you want to be in high school? Engineering/CAD
What did you want to be after high school? Mechanical Engineer
What are you doing now? Engineer/Construction Project Manager
So if you aren’t one of those working your dream job what stopped you? I wouldn't call this a dream job, but I got into the field that I wanted too. I got a degree in mechanical engineering and I started off in construction management for a consultant company right out of college, but got laid off 2 years later. Then I did some CAD design for a year and a half, but I realized that wasn't for me so I went back to construction management. I've been doing this for 5 years now and I enjoy it, when it's busy. It's civil service, so it's definitely not a dream job, but it pays the bills and it's secure.
