Not enjoying my job at the moment so looking for inspiration for a possible change.

What is the best job you ever had (or have been told about)?

I too love my job in a primary school @OldChinaJug Best job in the world. I've skipped in most days for the past 20 years.

I loved working in an aquarium one summer. I also loved working as an usher in a theatre during uni.

I'm a primary teacher.

When it's tough, it's really tough but I bloody love it most of the time.

Every day, I'm hugged and given little messages telling me how I'm loved I am.

It's a genuine privilege to spend my day with other people's inquisitive, hilarious, if sometimes infuriating little people.

I always look forward to returning in September and rarely have Monday morning blues. But I am in a brilliant and supportive school, which helps.

I've had many jobs but my favourite is now - my own childminding business. Mind you the government is ruining that at the moment too.

I worked in a chip shop when I was 17, I enjoyed that.
