All of us have to go to work, some of us love our jobs but most of us hate it. Then there are some of us who don't mind the job and what they are really doing is the bare minimum to earn a paycheck. What would you do if you had a choice? If there was nothing to hold you back or years of schooling to muddle through before you got to where you wanted, what would be your dream job.
In a fantasy world where I imagine I would be happiest, I always thought Hugh Hefner had a pretty awesome job. Being the owner and president of Playboy Magazine would be a cushy gig. Beautiful women running around in skimpy outfits or naked altogether, money rolling in by the truck load, a big mansion, and parties everyday seems like every guys dream.
But I truly think this would get old after awhile, the same thing happening every day, women would be mere objects to you, a way to make money and satisfy your primal urges, other than that they would become useless and annoying. I imagine you probably wouldn't get to know anyone on a deeper level, the women themselves would be fake and suck up to you all the time, as well as the men in your employment. A true friend would be hard to find and a spouse even harder.
Rock star is another job I think would be the ultimate way to make money and love your life at the same time, It could get busy and hectic at times but it would be worth it. The reward for your hard work besides the money would be the fans who love what you have written from your heart and soul, that is more rewarding than any sort of monetary gain in my opinion. Once again though it would be hard to meet anybody that you could trust, gold diggers would be everywhere.
In a normal world where I might love my job, would be in video game design and ideas. I love a good story, art, music, gameplay, and new ideas. To be surrounded with other people who are like minded and creative as well would be a great experience. Feeding off each others ideas and expanding upon an already great concept is something I would truly enjoy.
What would you dream job be? Fantasy or otherwise.
