Rich. Oh, and a helicopter pilot. :smile:

One other thing I'd love to have done is be one of the people (no idea what their 'official' job title is) who selects the 'soundtrack' songs for TV dramas, documentaries, trailers, etc. That would be cool. Never looked into it as a serious career option though. :(

I'd now like to be a mystery 'shopper'/reviewer (or whatever you call 'em) for luxury holidays. :P:cool:

Helicopter pilot?!

Do you understand how much fuel those saucy beasts demolish? :P

I was offered a post as a mystery shopper with John Lewis. "When do I get the card and how much can I spend on it?" I asked. "No, you buy things with your own money" came the disappointing reply. "But...but...what? I claim the money back?" I followed up. "No, you pay for the things, keep them and fill in a questionnaire form after every purchase."

Duff tossers.

My mate was a mystery shopper when we were kiddy students and he got to go to all the places in the Forte chain which included hotels, Beefeater and Little Chef at the time. He'd stuff himself silly every other night and saved a fortune on food bills. Plus, he got to take a friend and could have a bottle of wine with every meal. Stuart was SO popular!

Carpenter/Joiner.

What do I do now? Carpenter/Joiner :thumbup:

Result!

My grandad was a Carpenter/Joiner and I went to his workshop quite alot as a kid, I take it that's where I go it from.

If my dad was still alive, or we had kept my dad's shop (Car Accessory shop) running no doubt i'd have took over there and possibly be owning my own buisness now but that wasn't to be, thanks to some twat's deciding to do the dirty over my mum and family when they were put in charge as managers when my dad died. (They decided to spend money on stock that wasn't needed just to get the 'free gifts', have their hands in the tills, play games on their computers, e.t.c)

I did go through a phase, as a very small child, where I was convinced I would turn into a boy. :ph34r:

I've never told anyone this - and so sharing with the internet seems reasonable - I thought my parents took my eyes out every night with a special machine and experimented on them (for reasons only known to them). The proof, I reasoned, would be bruising around the eye...thus, having spent most of the night awake in sheer terror, I'd go to the bathroom mirror and see a pair of bloodshot and tired eyes. AHA! They did it again. The bastards!

I swore I'd never do experiments on my children's eyes and, to date, I have been true to my word.

So where do you conduct your experiments on them?

:unsure:

I loved Animal Magic. I wanted to talk to the animals like Johnny Morris and take monkeys home with me. I wanted to rear otters from pups and feed the elephants.

So I wantd to be a zookeeper.

Then I grew up and realised it was mostly shovelling sh*t. :mellow:
