I've always wanted to be a 911(999) operator. I think I'd be good at it, and I think it would be an interesting job.

I'd like to be President, but only during a really peaceful time when the economy is great. that way I don't have to worry about ****ing stuff up.

So you wouldn't do anything as President, then what would be the point of being President?
That's like saying I really wanna be a surgeon but I only want to have healthy patients that don't need any surgery.

The contract management side definitely is. I have no involvement with acquisitions because I don't work for a company (as such), but if the bids that I put together are successful then, those services/contracts need to be managed. I manage the permanent healthcare recruitment side of the contracts that I deal with, but that's an add on rather the main focus.

It's a lot of reading and a lot of attention to detail. That kinda job would drive me nuts. My mom loved it though. she made a 6 figure income, had a corner office, and she was damn proud of it. She loved it.

no seriously, they do often enjoy homosexual sex. They even **** each other in their blow holes. I'm not being funny.
I'd be in entertainment, perhaps a comedy writer. In real life though, I think I am destined to work in an office and I'm completely okay with that, I enjoy working in an office environment and to date I've worked in accounts departments, HR departments and operations departments and I've enjoyed all of them. Currently working part time in a call centre taking delivery orders and doing the accounts for a restaurant chain, I like it.

It can be a bit intense, that's why I work long days but not that many hours (if that makes sense). If there's one talent I have in this world, it's being pedantic. I'm not near the 6 figures yet, as I left good job working for a company to setup and work for myself. I should end up doing OK in a few years, but it'll just take time to get there.

I've wanted to be a meteorologist for a long time now, I find the weather in general really interesting. Being an architect would also be amazing. However, maths is far from my strongest subject and I can't draw to save my life so I think they'll have to remain as only dreams!

My mom tried to set up her own consultant company. It all went pear shaped though, almost broke up my parents marriage too. She really put her heart and soul into that company, but it wasn't meant to be.

She went too hard too fast i think. She bought office space, and hired 2 employees. And so yea, the financial burden of having an actual office while her business was so small is what killed it I think. She was too ambitious too soon. I think if she had built it from home to begin with, instead of going the whole hog so quick, she might have had a chance.
She had absolutely no trouble getting back into the corporate world though, and in the end she was very successful.

To be an MP has been my dream for the last 7 years. It is not by any means a glamorous thing but to have to fight a campaign, with more votes than any other candidate no matter how many may be standing.
Then to hopefully win re-election in future election/s must be the most incredible feeling.
If I do succeed at that,I just hope that a more consensus politics comes into existence and that most MPs trusted with the votes and hopes of the people who voted for them, will be able to do a great deal more for them and the Country than they are able to influence/do now.

They sound eerily close to the errors that I made to begin with. You forget that the safety net of a big company can protect you from your own mistakes at times.

That's absolutely true. You have no idea how much goes into an actual business until you have your own business.
You know what though, i don't think she ever regretted it. I think she would have regretted it if she never tried. I was always her dream, and i think, even after it was over, she was always proud to have been a business owner, even though it was a failed business.
My brother and I always talk about getting matching tattoo's to commemorate my mom, and this conversation has made me realize what the perfect tattoo would be. It will be the logo of Vector.

It was the name of her short lived company. And she had a logo, professionally designed and everything, letter head.. like i said, she went the whole hog. Vector International Inc. It was her dream, i think it would be a fitting tattoo for us.
The best idea we had previous was to get a black eyed susan flower, cause my mom's name was Susan, and her favorite color was yellow. But neither of us really wanted a flower tattoo.

Oh right, I was googling "Vector logo" wondering what it was. That explains it and it would seem like a company like that, with highs and lows, would be a good way to commemorate her memory.

Love watching Torvill and Dean ice skate! King and Queen of the ice and are perfect legends. :worship: :worship: :cheer: :banana: :cheer2: :amazed: :D
I look up to Torvill and Dean they are real role models who have worked hard all their life! :worship: :worship:
Love that I have ice skated at same ice rink as Torvill and Dean in the mid 90's, where they first ice skated and where they first came up with their famous Bolero and got a row of 06 for their perfect and amazing Bolero performance in 1984! :D
It was amazing when I seen their Bolero costume and three other costumes at the ice rink! :D
I am such a big fan of theirs and cannot wait to see them at the Dancing On Ice Tour next year! :worship::worship::cheer::banana::cheer2::amazed: :D
