It's never been my dream job but something that's always been in the back of my head. I was in IT for a long time before I became a SAHM. Very different. I'm not sure what I'd do next... I guess we'll see in a few years! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-have-any-other-job/page/2#post-2100229 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 08:34:35 +0000 littlebug 2100229@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd work for Planned Parenthood or a similar program - providing sex education to teens, abortion support, birth control support, rape counseling... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-have-any-other-job/page/2#post-2100145 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 07:18:54 +0000 bushelandapeck 2100145@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I would be a fitness/yoga instructor or own a small book store/gift shop. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-have-any-other-job/page/2#post-2100081 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 02:24:30 +0000 Rocker2014 2100081@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Personal shopper! </p> <p>(Though I do love my current job) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-have-any-other-job/page/2#post-2100079 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 01:27:59 +0000 AprilFool 2100079@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would be a newborn photographer and I am actually making moves to start this business. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-have-any-other-job/page/2#post-2100077 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 01:19:19 +0000 SAHM0811 2100077@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cake decorator! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-have-any-other-job/page/2#post-2099720 Sun, 08 Mar 2015 13:33:37 +0000 shellio 2099720@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would love to be a yoga instructor! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-have-any-other-job/page/2#post-2099710 Sun, 08 Mar 2015 13:10:17 +0000 BananaPancakes 2099710@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Elementary art teacher or own a children's bookstore. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-have-any-other-job/page/2#post-2099695 Sun, 08 Mar 2015 12:48:45 +0000 PrincessBaby 2099695@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love my job, I truly do. But if I ever did anything else, it would be in the realm of starting a franchise business. I (and my husband) have great business acumen and I know that if there was a blueprint/model already in place due to the purchase of a franchise, we would hit the ground running and basically just do awesome with it. I am a lot more skeptical of starting a business 100% as a new to market business, mainly because I watched my Dad's business crash and BURN and it left a long trail of debt and heartache for my parents to deal with. So I would love to have my own business, just with the added security of the franchise name/model - the job I have now is one where I basically act as if it's "mine" as far as what I do to grow my sales and revenue, and I do pretty awesome and they reimburse me extremely well for my efforts, but hey- they still make a lot more from the fruits of my labors:) </p> <p>I'd actually love to start a Chick Fil A, because let's face it, what Chick Fil A fails? We looked into startup capital requirements and the snag is that you have to be a store manager in a Chick Fil A for a couple of years. And at this point, I'm not down with that JUST yet. I still like my job way too much! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-have-any-other-job#post-2099673 Sun, 08 Mar 2015 12:02:09 +0000 nana87 2099673@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd like to be a librarian </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-have-any-other-job#post-2099670 Sun, 08 Mar 2015 12:01:02 +0000 avivoca 2099670@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd work in a fabric store.

I've always said I'd be a stellar super rich person :) </p> <p>But realistically a job that I could (have) actually study and obtain... gah I have no idea. Probably why I'm directionless in life lol. I guess I would really love if I was a (successful) wedding photographer. If you're highly sought after you can make good money shooting 20 or so weddings per year. It's really hard work but I really enjoy it and I could stay home with LO (since weddings are weekends when DH is home) and probably just hire someone to come watch her a few days per week in my home while I edit during the busy season. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-have-any-other-job#post-2099327 Sat, 07 Mar 2015 21:05:58 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2099327@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sapphiresun: the series 7 exam actually doesn't require a specific degree. I worked with a nurse who was studying for it! </p> <p>I'm not sure. I think I would consider something in the tech field (database administrator or something) but I think I like people too much. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-have-any-other-job#post-2099323 Sat, 07 Mar 2015 21:03:34 +0000 clover 2099323@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a PA and love what I do, could not imagine choosing another pathway! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-have-any-other-job#post-2099299 Sat, 07 Mar 2015 20:38:11 +0000 Blueberry 2099299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>In the middle of changing careers now! :) nursing school here I come! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-have-any-other-job#post-2099292 Sat, 07 Mar 2015 20:30:58 +0000 BabyMats 2099292@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@808love: I was thinking the same thing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-have-any-other-job#post-2099290 Sat, 07 Mar 2015 20:29:31 +0000 MsMini 2099290@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would still be a nurse, doing what I am doing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-have-any-other-job#post-2099285 Sat, 07 Mar 2015 20:24:22 +0000 808love 2099285@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Philanthropist: research ways and organizations to spend and give money, help others, travel to monitor and commend people on their work, and make my own hours.
