what would be your ideal job (and don't say NOTHING!)?

I'm doing mine but not at the level I'd like. I'm only 25 though so it's still all good for me...
I wonder how many of the overwhelmingly bitter people here actually have jobs they enjoy, and maybe that's why they're fucking assholes during the day

What??
Don't cheapen yourself..get a bass :D
In all seriousness, a lot of the writers I admire and/or draw inspiration from worked as journalists or did that as a side thing to pay the bills while working on their novels or stories. So something where I could work in journalism would be ideal 
Also, I could be happy working at a record store during the day (or even a Best Buy-style store, if push came to shove). I have a lot of opinions and knowledge about music that I'd like to force on innocent strangers who make the mistake of asking me to help them find "The Eagles' Greatest Hits" or "Yanni: Timeless Melodies" 
ummm wondering that right now. I love music, music stores and the like. But as a realist I know that they are not long for this world-give it five years, ten tops
One of the favorite things I ever did was be a teacher aide for a class of kindergartners during my senior year of High School 15 years ago. Only now do I grasp that I made a huge difference. Stuff kids learn that young impacts them for the rest of their lives.
I have decided to apply to the County Board of Education to be an Elementary Teacher's Aide. I loved working with a child, being patient, and then they get it-like a-ha!
I have a Social Work Degree and my entire junior college career was all Educations classes.
I am tired of retail and never wanna do it again. I want a career.

Cue Monty Python-I'm a lumberjack and that's okay. I work all night and sleep all day!!

Retail sucks. Been there, done that, never again.
I think I'm in my ideal profession... but other possible jobs would be:
a full-time writer or an architect.
I think being a full time professional writer is rather achievable for me, if I had the time (which I don't currently), but being an architect requires 4 years of architecture school, and I won't do that.. so perhaps later in life I shall choose to be a full-time writer. We shall see.

Trev is the man for mullets!
Sadly I still don't know, otherwise I'd be there.
I believe I'd love a job that require a lot of travelling around the world.
I also fancy being a comedian or quite opposite a tragic actor in the theater or on TV.
