dionneshea, who got it from someone else, who got it from someone else...
1. Go to http://www.careercruising.com/.
2. Put in Username: nycareers, Password: landmark.
3. Take their "Career Matchmaker" questions.
4. Post the top ten results.
1. Tailor / Dressmaker - Sure, I like sewing when I tried it. Why not?
2. Technical Writer - Not like I worked as a tech writer and it was my minor in college or anything...
3. Cabinetmaker - Yeah, okay. I like carpentry and interior design. This is a good combo.
4. Gunsmith - Really? Wow.
5. Electronics Assembler - I guess...
6. Sign Maker - I hope it's neon signs. That'd be cool.
7. Dental Lab Tech - I always wanted to be a dentist. No, really, I did.
8. Tool and Die Maker - Yeah, that wouldn't be bad.
9. Locksmith - Then I could break into people's houses and stuff!
10. Machinist - Would I hang out with an insomniatic Christian Bale?
11. Anthropologist - COOOOOOOL.
12. Carpet and Upholstery Cleaner - Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
13. Critic - Hell yes.
14. Furniture Finisher - Sure, I could do this.
15. Picture Framer - And this one, too.
16. Print Journalist - If I wasn't one of those heartless journalists, yeah.
17. Writer - Definitely.
18. Upholsterer - Sure.
19. Communications Specialist - What does this mean?
20. Translator - No way. 5 years of German, and all I know is "Ich bin Auslander und spreche nicht gut Deutsh. Bitte, sprechen Sie doch langsam."
21. Market Research Analyst - Maybe.
22. Boilermaker - The drink, the alum, or the actual job?
23. Vending Machine Servicer - REALLY?
24. Welder - Yes, definitely. I love welding.
25. Tilesetter - Sure. It's that whole "interior design/hands on" thing again.
26. Bicycle Mechanic - Seeing as how I've never ridden a bicycle for more than a few feet, this would be funny.
27. Activist - I'd be so angry all the time.
28. Political Aide - Blech. Politicians are crooks.
29. Musical Instrument Builder and Repairer - Fine by me. I always liked watching when the piano tuner would come to our house.
30. Auto Detailer - Sure.
31. Public Policy Analyst - Nah. It's what my best friend does, and I don't have the heart for it.
32. Autobody Repairer - Maybe. Probably not, though.
33. Carpenter - Sure.
34. Plumber - Not as sure.
35. Sheet Metal Worker - Probably not.
36. Pet Groomer - As long as I wouldn't get bitten or have to put pink bows in a dog's hair, sure!
37. Security Systems Technician - No.
38. Magician - AWESOME. Just call me Gob Bluth.
39. Makeup Artist - VERY AWESOME. I love makeup.
40. Glazier - Yes.
It's interesting how some of these jobs wouldn't have interested me years ago, like being a carpenter or glazier or furniture finisher. After working on some many trade books, I think I started enjoying hands-on stuff much more. That, and all of the HGTV I've been watching lately...
