What would be your " fantasy job " even for a day ?
 

I am sure that we all have one or two jobs that we always felt would be fun if for evan a single day . I will try to start things off with mine :

1] Zamboni Driver for an NHL Team .

2] Engineer for the Disney Steam Powered Train .

3] Sanitation Truck Worker who gets to hang off the back of the truck and toss the bags into the compacter .

My brother worked his way up over 38 years and retired as a senior exec at UPS . He started by loading trucks at 4AM when he was in College . His fantasy was to operate large watercraft .
As soon as he retired he went to a special school to get licensed as a Tour Boat Captain / Pilot. He worked for several summers piloting Tour Boats in the Thousand Islands of Upstate NY . His wife who retired the same year ran the ticket office and his two college age children MC`d the Tours .

After I retired from a great career, I saw an ad in The Washington Post asking for volunteers at the National Zoo in Washington, DC. I got accepted and did considerable classroom training for the subject of Invertabrates(creatures without backbones).

I got to do tour guiding at the Invertabrate House and to do various live demonstrations with different critters. My absolute favorite was the Pacific Octopus. She (Caroline)was about 55 pounds and had an armspan of around 8 feet. The feeding demonstration was with shrimp on a long feeding stick and it was so neat to see her grab the shrimp.

Definitely a great volunteer job.:MOJE_whot:

Yours aligns with mine somewhat. I would love to play in an orchestra and/or I would like to be wardrobe mistress at a famous opera. sigh...with these ears? I can't even hear music anymore let alone play it.

Great question, Buffalo Jim! not much i can think of to do in one day....all my fantasies involve world travel and it would take me the whole day to get anywhere :) i guess i would enjoy being a big star for a day, but then one has to work up to that! i have found that most jobs are not fun....no one really pays money for one to have fun, but those who love their work are among the most fortunate in the world! to me it was always just a means to feed my children!

The question said " even if just for a day " meaning that your " fantasy " job could last as long as you want it to ! So try again !:)

This is a very interesting thread and the responses are so very different!
