I wouldn't talk about a specific career as I really don't mind a lot of things. But if there is some job which I need to lose my dignity or honesty, I wouldn't take the job no matter how much it pays. I know that in the real world, we all need a bit of the "cunning" personality to climb up and beat the competitors, but still, I love doing it in honest way. I wouldn't take anything that makes me being not me anymore!

Actually any kind of 9-5 office job never tantalized me..LOL. I remember when I was in high school ready to graduate, my mom and grandmother dragged me down to the personnel department of the bank they both worked for. They were hoping I guess that I ditch the idea of my chosen major in college as I wanted to be a Drama major (I was), but they thought it was a totally useless profession to get involved with, and wanted me to be more "practical" Now during high school I won all these merits in typing and steno (gee does anyone still do that?) So here I am in the personnel office and taking these tests to see if I qualified or not--well my subconscious mind must have revolted since even though I was an expert typist/stenographer I just really screwed up..like a rebellion thing...I just didn't want to work in a friggin' office! So the way I did on the typing exam you think a two year old had done it. You see, I just couldn't understand why they kept pushing this on me when they absolutely, positively hated their jobs...so why make me suffer? LOL Yes, I could see they wanted me to have a good paying job and all and security, but I just didn't want office work, no way!

If I can choose what I want I would say that I need a job that can make enough money but also will allow me to have time to take a good care of my family.
So I think I'm saying about having my own company or business than can allow me to manage my time between my family and business itself.

I would never ever want to be a butcher, because I hate meat and disecting animals and stuff grosses me out. :[[

There are more jobs out there that I would never want to do than I could ever possibly have time to list. I'll just say I've done retail and fast food and I would never ever do either of them again. The mantra the customer is always right keeps me away from retail because in actuality the customer is always an a**hole and generally wrong. Fast food is just dirty, dirty, dirty, and again, the customers are a**holes.

I would not work in fast food.
I would not work in retail between Nov 1 and January 7.
I would not do any job that entailed dealing with maggots.
