Jobs you'd do for one day

Unread postby Kristo » 28 Jan 2008, 14:52

I've often seen people doing jobs and think, "Wow that looks like fun." But then I think about it and figure I'd quit after about a day. Ever seen a job you'd do for one day? In the grand WWW tradition of list-making, here's my list:

1. Commercial airline pilot
2. Bowling alley pinsetter mechanic
3. MetroLink train operator
4. Flare bartender
5. Just about any job at the U.S. Mint
Peace. Love. Penguin.

Hmm let's see :D

1)Team mascot - That would cause some good laughs!

2)Police trainer. Assuming I ever had the skill it would be interesting to try.

3)Professional boxer. Yes after a day's beating I would not want any more of it!

4)Teacher. I am a patient guy but not sure how it would measure against a class that is bent on mischief :D

5)Goal keeper. That would make me really tense, no chance I could keep doing that.
I, for one, am dying to find out what colour they paint Michael's toenails.
