Friday Question #30

If you could experience someone else’s job for one day, what type of job would you choose?
I often wonder what is it like to be other people – what their day-to-day schedule is like. Maybe their job, which seems so fun to me, really isn’t.
Anyway. I am really curious about transportation. What is it like to fly a plane all day? Or drive a train all day? Is it fun, is it boring? Is this post really boring? Am I losing my mind?

I’d try out Queen of England.
Oh, that one is easy for me. To be a movie director. Having a fascination with making movies, I think it would be fun, challenging and chaotic. The only bummer would be that if I liked it, I would want to do it for more than just one day.
You are losing your mind.
JK! 😉
Here are three that come to mind for me:
1) Landscaper- working outside with my hands in the summer
2) Talk show host (like Ellen, not Oprah)
3) Lead singer of a band- so I can perform on stage
I like Kyra’s answer! I’d say actress. I’d love to be famous for just one day & see how the “other half” lives. 🙂
I’ve had so many jobs there isn’t much I haven’t tried that I’ve wanted to.
Kyra – LOL! Good choice!
martymankins – Any particular genre you’d like to direct?
sizzle – Thanks for being honest 😉 I really like all of those choices! Esp. the second one. You’d be great for that!
diane – I would love to see you act in something! You’d probably keep going after a day though!
Lisa – Maybe there is one you know you DON’T want to try? 😉
I’d probably be bored driving a train. All you have to do is speed up or slow down. The tracks do all the rest!
Angela – Driving it would probably be boring, but I bet it would offer some really neat views!
Maybe a writer. I dream of someday having the talent to finish my incomplete masterpiece: Bubba the Vampire Slayer.
Being Bill Gates wouldn’t be too bad either.
Y2K Survivor – It would be fun to see what it is like to be a writer. I imagine it’s a lot different than what I think it is!
My first choice was President of the US, but I figure I’d be so lost with the politics that unless they were just going to let me pass a bunch of great laws, there wouldn’t be a point.
So I’m going to go with Astronaut (one that’s on a mission) !
Gary LaPointe – Maybe if you were going to be the prez for a day, you could choose to do it on a day when he does fun schmoozy stuff 😉
I don’t want to work at all. I want to be unimaginably wealthy, with no responsibilities. The money to do whatever I want, the freedom to do it, and my favorite people/cats to go along for companionship. Just call me SlackerSJ.
SJ – I would LOVE that too. Wouldn’t we all? 😀
