Following on from the Que Sera thread, now we're all growed up, the majority of us find ourselves in humdrum run-of-the-mill jobs that don't even vaguely resemble our childhood dreams.
If qualifications weren't an issue, what would be your dream job now? (A realistic job, not "I would like to sit on the beach all day sipping cocktails" - which of course I would, but can't see anyone paying me to do that)
I think my ultimate job would be designing and building enclosures for animals (e.g., like a really good animal education park in as natural an environment as possible), or an architect (designing enclosures for humans :^O).
Or I would love to set up and operate an animal sanctuary (maybe one day, but too poor for that now).

While sipping cocktails on the beach would indeed be my first choice, I agree with your dream of an animal refuge.
My wife and I many years ago lived next door to a boarding kennel. It was a fantastically run place but when they sold it the new owner's adapted it took in strays and lost cats and dogs.
So cool to be able to do something like that and everyone in the street started donating blankets, food etc, we were never asked to, but just felt right to do it.
We would like to do a similar thing if ever money and time allowed us to.

You could do that job, Flashie!
I always wanted to be a criminologist, from reading Trixie Beldon and Agatha Christie books... but my parents said it wasn't suitable work. I'd still love to do that job. Maybe I'll study it before I retire and take it up as a hobby.
