What's your dream job!
 

What would be your definition of the perfect job - and the perfect boss (if any!).

Re: What's your dream job!
 

Already doing my dream job, as a midwife in the local community. Have a real laugh with my clients and have met and worked with thousands of people. Would love to do less paperwork, as it takes me away from the mums and babies.

If I didn't work as a midwife, I would like to be a porn film extra!!! :P  :P  :P

Just kidding of course. :D

Re: What's your dream job!
 

like lettie, I too am doing my dream job, I am, whats called in the field a Polysomnographist......and it's not related to the porn film industry :o ::)

Re: What's your dream job!

Something to do with reading sleep patterns maybe? ???

Re: What's your dream job!

Re: What's your dream job!
 

well done cazzer!

Re: What's your dream job!
 

Polysomnographist? You could do me some good because I suffer from Sleep Apnea [smiley=sleep.gif]

Re: What's your dream job!
 

I would have liked to have been a childrens nanny but ended up doing the opposit and working with the elderly.

Re: What's your dream job!
 

@ alfee thats one of the primary things I deal with, but i believe in the U.K. it's not taken as seriously as in other areas of the world.

Re: What's your dream job!
 

Alcohol taster!!!!

Re: What's your dream job!
 

i'm with you there gemz,  ::) ::) ::)

Re: What's your dream job!
 

me too

Re: What's your dream job!
 

Sorry i`m a bit slow getting back to you littlemo...Yes I think that we Brits do not take apnea serious enough, they say that I am borderline so the only thing that I have is a denture thingy to keep my throat open.

To those not in the know Sleep Apnea means that I wake up about 50-60 times an hour because I stop breathing, although I am not aware of it...it means I get lack of oxygen. [smiley=redface.gif]

Re: What's your dream job!
 

Alfee 50-60x/hr would make you extremely severe!
obviously there is a criteria, each event has to last for a minimum of 10secs and up to 5/hr in regular sleep 15/hr in REM is normal. 5-15 is mild, 15-30 mod and above that is severe. Cardiologist are now referring for sleep studies to rule out OSA before any meds or ops as a person with severe sleep apnea put's a strain on the heart and other major organs therefore by treating OSA, where effectivly treating the heart.

Re: What's your dream job!
 

Honest! iI have seen the graphs and they have told me 50 times...unless they mean per night ::)

Re: What's your dream job!
 

usually the RDI-respitiry distress index - is  per hour! your doc should be able to share this info with you, if you want some more information on it and can give me some figures I can let you know my opion... if you want it that is!!!!

Re: What's your dream job!

Re: What's your dream job!
 

My ideal would be something involving handicrafts and nice smelling things. Perhaps a shop selling them.

Re: What's your dream job!
 

My dream job would be to be a coach driver........without the passengers but still getting the tips.

Re: What's your dream job!
 

littlemo - alfee

sleep problems... pah.. I have been diagnosed with everyhting from epilepsy to night terrors and they still havent sorted me out after 20+ years of trying.. Complete waste of time and probably go to my grave not knowing whats wrong. I ahve been classed as ambulant disabled for the last 15 years.


I found a long long time ago that the cure was worse than the problem and stopped taking the different types of medication they tested on me a long time ago.. I have more fear of tablets than I do of sleeping now :(


Same problem in america and I would have been sorted years ago...

Re: What's your dream job!
 

I would be selfish and undeserving to deny that I probably already have my dream job if not in full then, certainly within 80% of it. I work from home in my own way and in my own time. I answer to one person who actually does what I say and not the other way round. I’m a Care Advisor and Policy Developer for a Domiciliary “Community Care” Care Company. I interpret and Implement National Care Standards. It’s very well paid work and comes with very little hassle. My boss as also become more of a friend than an employer. How can it be improved upon? I could be doing the business for myself….

Re: What's your dream job!
 

My Dream Job Would Be A Beer Taster or Wine Taster mmmmmmmmm!!!!!!!

Re: What's your dream job!
 

Professional footballer......if not PE teacher....do me fine that!

Re: What's your dream job!
 

Well today i got a step closer to my dream job which in time with plenty of training i want to go into nursing in the prision service

Re: What's your dream job!
 

I'm also pretty close to my dream job - I teach guitar. The level of job satisfaction is high, I travel around the area from place to place so I'm not stuck in the same stuffy room, its good to see kids doing something useful and fulfilling and putting their energies into creativity instead of destruction and disrespect.....and the money is good.

Re: What's your dream job!
 

ooh guitar. I used to play but have trouble with funny little fingers which bend inwards so I couldn't make them reach the right fret/string. Do you teach classical? (yes, I know it's a slight thread wander but I beg forgiveness)

Re: What's your dream job!
 

I am a grafter, so I want two jobs at least - preferably three.

Evenings, I want to be a wine taster, fine wines only, please, champagne preferred. will work until late.

I will then do the night shift at a good brewery that makes real ale, tasting, of course.

I am also open to offers for checking restaurants (or good cafes wot do breakfast).

For the day job, I want to be a quality control operative for a major bed-making firm.

Yup - boose all evening, eat free, and sleep all day. Can't be beat!

Re: What's your dream job!
 

Yes WOW. PM me.

Re: What's your dream job!
 

A holiday tester would be a good one. Get paid to go all over.

Re: What's your dream job!
 

Your wish is my command Willow, You SHALL have your own little shop with smellies but, sorry Ceejache, if anyone is to unbend Willows finger, It will be me! ;) (musically that is:) )

Re: What's your dream job!
 

they call them holiday reps ifty
yes sometimes a job to envy

Re: What's your dream job!
 

A friend of mine in Germany has a job with a holiday tours company which involves "testing" the hotels etc before they are added to the brochures. She isn't a rep. She doesn't go with the package tours. She goes for several days on her own just to sample the facilities first. Sounds like Ifty's dream job doesn't it? She has been to most of the countries in Europe and north Africa.

my dream job would be............................... well i don't know yet i'm only 14 i would like 2 b a teacher if not that then a sports teacher

Re: What's your dream job!
 

14 is a good age to start seriously thinking about what you'd like to do with your future.

Good luck if you want to be a teacher, concentrate on those academic qualifications before we end up losing them altogether.

Re: What's your dream job!

Re: What's your dream job!
 

It's hard work being a porn star but great fun, then I was an electrician installing electrics and cctv alarms n other stuff in excititing places, now I transport chemicals explosives bullets round the country, what could possibly be better than those.

Re: What's your dream job!
 

Somewhat simpler than some but then that's me :D my dream job would be a carpenter. I think wood is a gorgeous material and I'd love to have honed the skills that I gained at school and done an apprenticeship instead I foolishly went on to do A levels and now work for the NHS :mad:

Re: What's your dream job!
 

never too late basher and yes wood is a lovely material, my grandad used to tell me nearly everything on the farm back in poland was made of wood. For some reason people now seem to shy away from using it, as it's environmentally unfreindly. How the hell can using one of the most natural, replaceable materials be so. You grow trees, cut them down, plant new trees. As long as new trees are planted it's got to be better than plastic.
