What's your dream job?

I'm sorry if a thread like this has already been made, I just didn't want to spend an hour looking over forty pages of forum. =D Yay! My first thread ever!

=) Any way what would be the job/career of your dreams? Or if you already have the luxury of having that job right now, what is it?

I don't really know what my dream job is because my future is still far ahead of me. Oddly enough though I think it would be fun to be a historian... -prepares to run and hide from a barage of laughter- =) History is just so interesting. I mean it is what shapes our future after all?
Or if I couldn't be a history I'd like to be an Aircraft Mechanic. Fixing lovely little broken planes all day would be challenging as well as fun.
Being a Pilot would be cool also, but my mom would kill me because I surely wouldn't want to be flying one of those big passenger jets. :P There's no adventure in that.

^_^ I think it would be rather interesting to see what your guys dream jobs are. A friend of mine thinks you can tell alot about a person by what job they have/want, and I'm wondering if thats true in some cases.

My dream job would be to be a highly qualified historian or a fighter pilot or even a test pilot of new secret combat aircraft.

Move somewhere else...

Not sure what would be my dream job, bush pilot wouldn't be bad (in East Africa). Being a professional lottery winner would be good job though...

Full time aviation photographer. I do it as a hobbyist now and make a few bucks here and there, but like the guys that get sent the tickets and accomodations to go and shoot a flight or event, and get paid well to do it.

That or a guitar tester at Martin or Fender.

Well, I'm pretty desperate... So any well-paid job outside Québec would be fine for me.
