What did you want to be when you grew up?

[JordanIbe]

I will start
Wrestler
Shopkeeper
It guy
Hollyoaks star

For me.

Cabin crew 👩‍✈️✈️ member 😀

I develop alcoholic drinks 🍸and brands for a living 😂

Every since I started school I wanted to be a teacher because I thought that they did nothing but boss people about and get other people (the children) to do all the work so it must be easy.

I'm now a teacher

An orchestra conductor

A fairy
An astronaut
Biologist or chemist
Ballerina

As an actual grown up my dream job would be an epidemiologist.

An astronaut, a doctor, a lawyer, a primary school teacher. Am actually a secondary teacher.

Paleontologist
Actress
Journalist
Forensic scientist

Primary school teacher.
Social worker.

My mum said I should be an accountant.

Through numerous jobs changes I worked in the financial services industry, realised I loved numbers and retrained after maternity leave to do AAT. Loved all the training and have worked in various account roles since.

I should’ve listened to my mum. I could’ve been a lot further than I am now.

A nurse. Then kids came along. Currently studying for my degree in adult nursing. Should be qualified by the time I’m 41.

A hotel receptionist in a very posh hotel checking in all the rich and famous people.

A mother
A police woman

I managed 50% of that 😅

Journalist
Scientist
Police officer
RAF officer

No. I'm none of those!

A teacher.
I used to line my teddies up in the front garden and play 'school'. I used to make worksheets of sums and make certificates to give to my friends.

I'm a teacher 😁

Doctor, marine, RAF fighter pilot and a ballerina. Told I couldn't be the first three because I was a girl and I couldn't be a prima ballerina as I had two left feet.

A physics professor.

My gcse physics tutor lost my coursework and claimed I never handed it in. Made me copy another child's in the class on the day and I got a D :( I only scraped an overall C after the exam and failed to get in to Physics at college. Then got so angry at the world I quit college anyway.

It's weird how one stupid little error by someone else can sort of dictate a child's entire life.

I lost all faith in education after that and only now am I going back to study properly (OU) at 33.

Oh and sadly I am none of those, I am a SAHM about to begin a degree with the aim of studying post grad cyber security.

Vet
Hairdresser
Teacher

I currently work in childcare and have done for many years - the only profession I know!

Nurse.
Teacher.
Unicorn trainer.
Didn't go on in school needed to work so I didn't look like a scruff.

Journalist.
Doctor.
Air hostess (as it was described then).

I m none of these.

When I was a child I wanted to be a Fighter Pilot or a Vicar!
Women couldn't do either of those jobs in those days.

As a teenager I wanted to be a war journalist like Kate Adie.

I'm actually a healthcare assistant.

I would still like to be a journalist...

A travel writer or child psychologist. Its depressing how far from either of those I am.

A stunt woman.

I wanted to be left alone> I wanted to be invisible. I wanted to find the things everybody else found easy at least do-able. That's all. I had no big goal. Just to slip under the radar and survive all the demands

A pussy cat (out of Josie and the Pussy Cats), an astronaut, or a physiotherapist.

1 out of 3 ain't bad.

Can't remember what I wanted to be as a young child apart from Olympic gymnast
Cabin crew
Marine Biologist
Sports journalist
Lawyer (in This Life)

I am none of the above....

What I wanted: hairdresser/actor
What I am: lawyer

😭
