What job does everyone want to do?

Post by Iris »

Im just finishing university (think its the same as college in america), im almost 21, and i have no idea what job i want to do, and in about 2 months im going to have finished all my exams, and have to find something to do!!!!!!
I have no idea what though!!!!
ARGH!

So thought id see what everyone else wanted to do?

I want to live on a beach, and have a dog, but thats all i know!
Maybe an ice cream seller?
Hrm.....

Dream: Author of (a) best-selling novel(s).

Probably: A fry cook at McDonalds.

You: Um, let's see....you could move to Cali and start your own pay-me-to-walk-your-dog business. Then do all of your walking on the boardwalk.

Computers pays good.
Engeneering pays good.

Depends on what you took in university.

PS. There are both collage AND university in canada and the united states. Collage is hands on, and university is more bookwork.

Well. i took marine geography, which means the most i can earn is 10,000 a year, which is less than i get on my student loan :(
I wish i had taken software engineering or a computer course so much!!!!!!
Having said that, my dad said he'd show me how to programme in visual basic over the easter hols!!!! :)

Iris:What do *you* want to be? What is the one thing that you really enjoy doing? Whatever it is, focus on that and don't compromise and, hey man(ette), you'll succede at it. Money is second to enjoying what you do, because if you don't like it, you'll never go anywhere with it and end up spending your days asking "do you want fries with that?"

BTW: Southampton England? That's the only place with a university that I can think of right now, looks pretty nice.

K0: There are HUNDREDS of Universities in the US. Try Indiana University, Harvard University, Yale, Princeton, Michigan, Oregon, etc. Iris doesn't know what (s)he's talking about University-wise.

We have three universities in Arizona, I think. None are all that good, but we do have three (NAU [North Arizona University], ASU [Arizona State University], and U of A [University of Arizona]).

NAU's in Flagstaff, ASU's in Arizona, and U of A's in Tuscon, I think.

We have three or so here. IU, Purdue, and IUPUI. The last is an exceptionally excellent school though all are good. Along with that, we have a truckload of colleges.
