What did you want to be when you were a kid?

[Spare]

A paleontologist.

alternatively a cop, or a convict. for some reason jail really appealed to me as being an awesome place. I also considered becoming a viking at some point.

I don't remember. I kind of recall wanting to be a scientist, or an astronaut. Then for a while I wanted to be a lawyer. Then an airline pilot, then an air traffic controller.

Now here I am, an unemployed firefighter/EMT, vying with 100+ other idiots for one job position, considering the Navy or a job as a corporate drone with my friend's attractive company

 

[Punisher]

A gangster like the Kray twins

 

[ThisGuy]

a dinosaur

 

[Bluey]

When i got to 15 i did 2 weeks work experience at a dog canal and then decided that shuffling honeysuckle was not for me XD

 

[Lawrens]

Comic book artist

 

[Drama]

A superhero (d)

 

[Haz]

everything under the sun, from sports star to rock guitarist to fireman to astronaut to comic book artist to video game designer

I had it all planned out and everything

 

[edgecrusher]

i dont even remember. i think as a real young kid i wanted to be a firefighter. now that i think about it, ninja sounds cooler.

 

[Aimless]

I wanted to be a judge, simply because they make a lot of money. Then I wanted to be a psychiatrist, because I enjoy psychology and grew up watching too much Frasier.
Now i'm majoring in accounting, seems like a practical career with decent income.

 

[All In The Mind]

I wanted to scrounge off benefits

 

[Orthochromatic]

At first an astronaut - I remember some of the moon landings and it was a big deal, plus I figured I could eventually go to the Planet of the Apes after doing a few tours flying Eagles on Moon Base Alpha.

Then I wanted to be The Six Million Dollar Man, though I only got as close as 5 figures after my motorcycle accident and while recovering from that in the 80's I discovered computers - figured it was way better than manual labor.
