What do you want to be when you grow up?
Posted by: Diccus62 on 28 August 2008
If it wasn't for the fact that you are just so damned happy in your current job/role/profession what else would you fancy?

This week I think I would be a Media Mogul . I don't know exactly what one does but it sounds damned powerful and important to me. It could possibly involve smoking big cigars and shouting at minnions. Alternatively I wouldn't mind being a........................
Dolly Grip
or maybe a ...........................
Phlebotomist
which might be a bit dull so possibly a
Gigolo
though there don't seem many cards for that in the Byker Jobcentre Plus.
or a
Strategic stock distributor or shelf stacker.

An escort - certainly pays better than the day job.

I'd probably end up in the back of one....

I hope I never entirely grow up!
That would be too sensible.
No matter, my lack of talent, I would love to write a hand full of pieces of the quality Bach always managed. That would be something!

I even dared to apply for a job stacking shelves in the Co-op, but they said that I was not suitable! I can walk, talk, and even lift heavy things, so there must be something terribly wrong with my looks or talent! I was not required to speed type!!!
George
PS: The Co-op is still my favourite shop. Like a working class Waitrose really, and the quality is just as good, but it is expensive for some lines, while it has the best dairy products, meat, veg, and coffee in any supermarket, and these are not costly there!

Presume you mean in his Clash days and not currently.

I'm educated in three different professions, an engineer, a taxi driver and a computer programmer.
As I actually never worked as an engineer, that's what I would like to do. Think, spending ones day at a nice, big drawing table, some occasional calculations on a slide rule, sucking on a pipe, comfortable slippers on ones feet!

Great question!!
I'd say an actor.
In fact, before that I'd rather be a Nobel Prize winner having been able to simulate human consciousness through silicone, and thus able to help brain damaged patients or any patient with neurological disorders.
Or even better, being a Nobel Prize winner who can replicate someones full brain workings, so they can potentially have immortality but on a memory stick.
What a world that would be!!!

Leaves me out I guess, then. I'm no hot dog.

So you have never heard, on a good hifi system, the jingle:
"my bologna has a first name, it's o-s-c-a-r, my bologna has a last name, it's m-a-y-e-r"
The imaging and soundstage are not to be missed,
