To ask what job you should be doing?

[curiousbeak]

I should have been a high powered lawyer but was not clever enough so have been in supply chain for 15 years.

Haha. I'd just like to tazer all the bad 'uns.

Agree

DS AF

you have a taser on your superhero utility belt

I should have been an artist /photographer but I teach English to teenagers p/t on temp contacts because I took 7 yrs out to be a SAHM and the profession is unrecognisable to me now.

I should be a professional food critic. Alas, I am a procurement manager.

Should have been undercover for MI5 really.

That or some whizz kid neuropaediatrician or something fantastic.

Work in uni admin

Architect

Seriously underestimated my abilities when I was younger, even thought to train when I was in my late 20s. Its too late now, I'm too old.

Regret of my life

I wanted to be a writer. I am a mental health nurse, which I don't hate, but I do think I probably could have done something a bit more aspirational if I had done some more work rather than focusing on having a really good time.

With hindsight I should have been a plumber or electrician.

The one I'm doing.

I have visions of a superhero AF now

I should be a biomedical scientist. Mixture of kids and injury had me falling at the final hurdles.
Would have loved to retrain as a pathologist, but would take me too many years, too much money and I'd probably be more decrepit than the corpses

Photojournalist if that’s the right word. Get to travel, have your work published, be fulfilled creatively, be independent. Or that’s what I imagine! And sounds like you could do it forever and not get bored and people would think you’re amazingly cool.

Anything but what I'm doing now...
Something creative

I'm a SAHM now but would have loved to been a CID officer or barrister but I'm terrible with people so that wouldn't have worked.

I am support worker for people with complex needs and feel like it's what I am meant to be. I did try university and I considered doing business but it didn't really fit me and I was miserable. Since I started my career in care I've felt at home.

I'm a teacher. I should have been a PA.

I should have been a mortician. I prefer working with clients who don't complain and witter on incessantly.

A&E nurse

I should have been a man. That and normal vision. I should never have been short sighted.

I'd have been a fighter jet pilot à la Top Gun and I'd have played international rugby. I think I'm really Rory Underwood reincarnated except he's not dead.

I should have gone into the police but it turns out I’m shit at finding the answers to clues

Author

Writer. Unfortunately I lack the discipline needed so I just do it as a hobby in the form of blogging. I work in a call centre.

Band Scout for a record label. I'd be aces at that.
I also think I'll make a good counsellor (if I ever finish my my studies around life,sodding work and house renovating).

A counsellor definitely.

I should have been on the West End stage but because I passed my 11+ my parents wouldn't entertain me trying out for stage school. It was grammar school, A levels then a sensible degree because I could (days of free University education and neither of them stayed in school past 15).
Now I work in marketing.
They probably should have let me audition and not get in then I would have known I wasn't good enough 😂

I should be a high powered board level finance director in a big town with a huge house taking serious decisions.

I am an accountant, but for a small company in a 'local' town, who is also in charge of making sure tea and coffee doesn't run out.

Tried the police (the free one, Special Constabulary) for 10 years - but, was a bit crap at it to be honest.
