For today's #TQOTD, you can either follow your dreams or be pragmatic about it.  If you had to start a new career, what would you do?

TEXT QUESTION OF THE DAY:
If you suddenly had to start a new career tomorrow … what would you do? Why?

  • I'd be a dentist
  • For my job, I would take care of fish's horse at the bar
  • My new career would be opening a Dessert Truck or a dessert store front. I LOVE Baking and creating new desserts. I would make cinnamon rolls, breads like Banana, Zucchini, etc., desserts for parties (like trifles, cookies bars, etc.), and my Oreo Chocolate Cake creation.
  • If I had to start a new career tomorrow, I would want to be an interior designer. I think that it is important to love the space you live in and to make a space beautiful for people to come home to would be an amazing feeling.
  • I would like to be an interior decorator/designer. I am very crafty and love to decorate. And I also love to shop and I’ve actually had people help me shop for them
  • TQOTD.. My dream job.. Photojournalist for National Geographic. Maybe one day. My kids are growing quickly and we will be empty nesters in 10 years or so.
  • I’m currently an RN, and it’s pretty much my dream job. I love helping patients get back to living their lives after a traumatic event.
  • A nurse is all I’ve ever really wanted to be, but if I wanted to switch specialties I’d like to work Labor and Delivery or be a Lactation Consultant. I love squishy babies
  • Too many! Start a dog rescue, be a Disney vacation planner, own my own bakery, or photography. Whew, I'm tired just thinking about it.
  • Crime scene investigator, I have always been intrigued with the show and got my degree in the criminal justice field. I am currently working as a store security officer, but would love become part of MSPs crime scene investigation force. Because of this I love watching the ID channel. (My husband thinks I am coming up with ways to get rid of him. )
  • Photography because it’s what I actually went to school for. Lol 10 years ago I had big dreams of being a big name photographer. I still do side work in it, but I would have never pictured myself as a Virtual Banking Assistant. But here I am. And I actually love working at a bank!
  • A legal pot dealer i get to stay home and munch all day and collect money with no worries
  • I'd love to go back to teaching, its my passion. I detoured years ago and ended up doing medical coding (quicker money and less school time than going back to teaching) as a single Mom. It was the right choice for my situation but I miss interacting with the students every day.
  • That’s a great question. I am retiring/being let go after 37 1/2 years. I really wanted another year but...I have no idea what I want to do. I’ve worked my whole life for insurance for my kids and now my husband. I have faith in the man above that he will point me in the right direction. Until then I am going to enjoy my summer off!!
  • Either a psychiatrist or a meteorologist, not here though … I would move to the central plains.
  • Equine Therapeutic Riding for physically and mentally handicapped people of all ages. Veterans with PTSD as well. I have volunteered for a place like this already and there is a need for it. It is amazing to see what this type of therapy can do for people of various physical and mental challenges. It is rewarding for me as well and I could be with horses all of the time. That's all I want to do ❤ Help people and help me.
  • Drill sergeant...running this sh**show for 18 years I’m pretty confident I could command some troops
  • I went from working as an early childhood teacher to an account support specialist for insurance health benefits.
  • Be an office manager because it’s Monday through Friday. Anything Monday through Friday.
  • I’m legit starting a new career as an elementary special education parapro this week. I left an office job of almost 16 years for it.

  • Lawyer. I can argue anything like you wouldn't believe and am really good at it. I can put my own personal feelings on a topic 100% aside and tear you a new one. If only I wasnt the age I am, I would totally go to school for it.

  • If financial allowed I would want to be a stay at home mom. I work 50+ hours a week and never have time for family.
  • How do I explain my fascination with space and the human brain? Hmmm...to have been the one who helped bring a family answers of what happened to their murdered loved one would be...something.

  • There is a super massive black hole that is a billion times our sun...can you imagine being the one to have discovered something...well, I can.
