Stolen from Jenny

1. Go to Career Cruising
2. Put in Username: nycareers and Password: landmark.
3. Take their "Career Matchmaker" questions.
4. Post the top twenty results

This makes me laugh:
1.Library Technician-dead end job, no thanks
2.Dispatcher-I've actually considered it before
3.Career Counselor-not bad
4.Librarian-eh
5.Dental Assistant-eh
6.Lifeguard-I don't like swimming that much
7.Bus Driver-never
8.Transit Operator-possibly, I guess I'd take it before fast food.
9.Taxi Driver-no thanks, I like to live
10.Community Worker-I could do that... if I already had a good income
11.Funeral Director-no satisfaction
12.Religious Worker-eh
13.Clergy-eh
14.Economic Development Officer-I don't even know what that is
15.Humanitarian Aid Worker-If my husband made 6 figures than sure
16.Sport Psychology Consultant-I like that
17.Industrial-Organizational Psychologist-hmmm.. don't know what that is, but I enjoy psychology
18.Personal Trainer-I'm not obsessed with working out.
19.Driving Instructor-I like my life too much
20.Psychologist-considered it

I'm going to post the next twenty for the fun of it
21.Social Worker-possibly
22.Addictions Counselor-with proper training, I could do that
23.Editor-eh
24.Human Resources Specialist-this is my current job and I LOVE IT
25.Medical Secretary-eh, I'm not good with medical stuff
26.Computer Trainer-I could also do this with more experience
27.Communications Specialist-eh
28.Animal Trainer-I like animals, but I'm not good at that stuff
29.Health Records Professional-that'd be easy enough.. kinda dead end though
30.Market Research Analyst-sure, I'd need training though
31.Print Journalist-eh
32.Administrative Assistant-ok
33.Fitness Instructor-I enjoy exercise, it is not my career
34.Postal Clerk-kinda tedious
35.Truck Driver-too lonely
36.Public Policy Analyst-uh... don't know about that one
37.Translator-HA!
38.Telephone Operator-yup, I've done it. It's easy
39.Professional Athlete-I wish
40.Marriage and Family Therapist-HAHAHAHAHHAHHAH, have you met MY family?

This helped me realize that I'm good at jobs where socializing or driving is involved, and don't pay much. I've also decided I get satisfaction out of helping others, which is selfish, but also makes me the most happy. I think I know myself well enough to say HR is where I belong, and I can always become a dispatcher...

I'm also extremely bored at work.. I was going to try and train myself on this computer stuff, but for some reason the page isn't loading. We are going to have a meeting soon... I have a bad feeling about it. With all the turmoil in my unit... we'll see how it goes.
