Thread: Tell Me the career path you plan on taking

Software Development and/or Game Design.

There are far higher priorities but plausibly and safely, teaching either religious studies or philosophy.

Highest aspiration is to be a director of movies
I'd like to write for a comedy TV show, or at least work on one.
Write video game scripts

I also want to open a comedy club in Buffalo, cause there are none.

Business.

I'd love to work in film and music, preferably film with music, or music as a hobby (that I could benefit from). I'm going to university for Broadcast Media so hopefully that takes me somewhere.

Psychology. I simply cannot wait.

History also, but I'm definitely more interested in Psychology and will pursue that after Psychology.

Drug dealing

That too.

I'm going to be a luthier (guitar maker).

I am now in college working towards a degree in mechanical engineering and seriously I don't really like what I am learning and probably would not want it as my career. Things just rolled that way. I went to a technological highschool didn't really knew what I want to learn they put me up for mechanical engineering, it was quite an easy subject. Then a special project with the military air force got me into college I study 1.5 years for a degree while the army pays 80% of the costs and then I work in the army with what I learned for 4.5 years.

Basically I get a degree with a discount and I get experience from the army at this profession with which I could go and work right after the army. But I just don't like it at all so far it's not something that I find interesting. And besides I hate machinery it makes me stressed.

I would be more interested in biology. I'd like a job where I can travel to all kinds of places on earth and study animals. Unfortunately not everyone gets to do what they want. I just wish I could be more interested at what I would be doing and find some enjoyment in it.

Would be glad to hear anything about mechanical engineering that might get me more into it from anyone who knows a bit about it.

I plan on Psychology.. there are some insitutes out there that help people get over their fears.. which I would love to be apart of.

But I must say, I would love to do what Stephen Laberge does.. researching lucid dreams and dreaming in general.. Helping others on how to lucid dream.. thats what I would truly love to do.

Software Engineering, more into programming. I've taken all the right courses for the prerequisites I need to get into a good University. And I already know how to program, so that's a good start. I might eventually work by myself or in a small group, but I'm not too sure.

I'm going for a bit of a jack-of-all-trades plan, myself. My main focus is to become a bladesmith and knifemaker. Yes, the two are different. A bladesmith uses a forge and anvil to shape blades through heat, while a knifemaker uses a belt grinder and various other tools to fashion a knife from steel stock by removing everything that isn't a knife. I'm interested in both.

I'm also interested in, and currently pursuing until certain issues are resolved that are keeping me from setting up a forge, photography. All areas of photography, though with emphasis on landscape and nature photography, with knife photography my main moneymaking pursuit. Maybe a touch of freelance graphic design as well, we'll see. I like utilizing my creativity.

I also plan on doing a bit of wilderness outfitting, working with my neighbor. Everything from trips to the Costa Rican rainforests to canoeing in the swamps of South Georgia to hiking in North Carolina. Lots of photographic opportunities there, too. We'll see how that works out, though.

I refuse to work at a job I don't like, so I may be relatively poor for awhile, until I get everything going, but with all of this combined, I should do alright for myself.

Pilot

Banking/Law Firm /Real Estate(here I have many connections who can get me started very quickly). It's changing around frequently as I discover which can make me more money and how fast and effectively I can profit.

Or some sort of boring computer related job like web design or programming or graphic design. I have the skills in all of these and more, however I recently realized how much I don't want to spend the rest of my life doing a career like this.

i wish i could be school teacher .... i mean i can but i wont because it doesn't pay well and i'm over qualified ....

if i win the lottery i will definitely go for it

screenwriter/director

I plan on a career hunting America's worst enemies. I'll be going to West Point for four years after a one year prep school, then branch into infantry.

I plan on going Airborne and Ranger, eventually going Special Forces, the best place to be, on the tip of the spear.

I will probably stay in over 20 years at least, and afterwards I plan on probably following in Billy Waugh's steps and working for the CIA as an independant contracter or simply employee.

Either way I'll be boots on the ground.

Hobbies will include playing guitar, trying to remember dreams, getting a pilot's license, hunting, fishing, working on end of the world preperations, shooting, all sorts of stuff.

I think I'm going to have an interesting life.

"He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would fully suffice. This disgrace to civilization should be done away with at once. Heroism at command, senseless brutality, deplorable love-of-country stance, how violently I hate all this, how despicable an ignoble war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be a part of so base an action! It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder." -- Albert Einstein
