Work work and more work
Today was a my first day back to work after having almost all last week off. I found myself swamped in tons of paperwork with a todo list 10 pages long, and I could not get motivated to do it. I did get a lot done but I feel as though I will never get it all done. even if I do get it all done the papers that I do will change the next month and I will have to do them all over again. I love my job but at this point I am so frustrated with it I can't stand to wake up and make the drive in, and than when I get there I have a hard time wanting to stay. OK enough of that, work is work and that is why they don't call it Happy happy fun time. If I could have any job in the world what would it be? I have put a lot of thought into this my though mostly revolve around what can I do when I am 65 because the way this economy is going I will be working until than, if not longer! so with that in mind what do I want to do, the first thought that jumps into my mind is I want to be a historian I really like history and I could research it all day long and never get board. I wonder if I would want to specialize in a certain time period or just go all over the board, my favorite time period is the early 1900's sometimes I think I should have been born in that time period with the exception that I am a very strong willed person and I don't think it would have worked out all that well. I love the dress and the talk of the time period and it intrigues me to think that maybe people than cared about others more than people do today. The next thing I would want to research would be wars, and again which one would I choose, I am most interested in the Civil War mostly for what it stood for. I also like researching WWII because my grandparents were both in the army in Germany for the war, and I have heard many stories about what they lived through. I would also like to study and research religions until I found one that best matched my views on God but I don't think that I will ever find one who can show me. but that is a subject left for another day. So If you could have any job what would it be and why?

retirement so I can spoil the grand kids and send them home to their parents.
ReplyDeleteI would be a state park naturalist somewhere around the north shore, so I can wander the woods, and not have to talk to people. Oh, and understand the balance of nature :)
ReplyDeleteSidewalk counselor and Prayer advocate so I could save God's precious children.
ReplyDeleteIf I had do-overs, I would have been an epidemiologist. At this stage of my life, I would love to be a travel writer. Oh, and I also would like to stand around on a street corner with a sign that says THE END IS NEAR!
ReplyDeleteKindergarten teacher. I love little kids!!! Since I have two kids to put through college I don't see this happening for me. I would also like to be a full time hospice nurse or a nursing instructor teaching Pathophysiology and first year clinicals. When I retire I hope to travel across the US on a gold wing motor cycle with my amazing husband. We also hope to do all that stuff that looks like fun to do once (usher at the Fox, sale hot dogs at a stadium, drive the train at the zoo). I would also love to be a full time volunteer. I worked at a clinic for homeless people while I was in college and loved it.
