Following on from Walters' poll what would be your
a) dream job - blue sky and all that jazz
you can make one up![Big Grin](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
b) ideal job - not a made up one, but what you would love to do given your normal circumstances
c) worst job
d) worst job you have done
Here's mine if you're interested![Stick Out Tongue](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/tongue.gif)
a) I would be a test subject for trainee masseuse/therapist/beauticians. Lying down all day being pampered
b) I would love to design homes, from foundation to complete decor. I've designed our dream home that we WILL build in Aus![ROFL](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/rofl.gif)
c) Snake catcher![Scared Hair](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/scaredhair.gif)
d) Sorter and packer in potato factory for 3 months when I left school, altho my current job is a close second - customer services is a thankless job![Blink](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/blink.gif)

Dream/ideal job would actually be the one I have now, but relocated to somewhere other than Brisbane - either Melbourne or Hobart, or back home. Unfortunately it doesn't translate well to anywhere else cos I need to be somewhere that gets plenty of storms and cyclones! A few people at work said the job was written for me, its so perfect - I'd only move for something very similar - first point of contact for government in times of disaster, my job to alert the right people, monitor disaster events, send out warnings, that kind of thing.
I would hate to work in anything involving beauty treatments, massage, fitness - a gym or somewhere like that![EEK!](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/eek.gif)

And my worst job - working in a launderette while I was at college - not just the dog blankets from the vet, and the towels from the hairdressers, the worst bit was the bags of clothes the old men used to bring in for service washes - you could smell the bags ten minutes before they were brought through the door.....![EEK!](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/eek.gif)

Ideal job.... I have the ideal job... go to work, do the work. come home and leave work behind... I just have to alter my mindset a bit to accept this..
Worst job.... I have the worst job... years of higher education and professional development to get vomited over by drunk teenagers...
Worst Job I've ever done... see above.... tomato picking in greenhouses in the height of summer wasn't much fun... and it didn't pay well either...
It was the best of times it was the worst of times........
