Job is really the wrong word of course. But what I'm really asking is what would you love to do if pay/work conditions/environment etc weren't totally terrible.

Like for me I've been dreaming of being a teacher. But I know I'd take a massive pay cut, have to work 100x harder, and be shit on constantly in our current system.

But when I have taught before both professionally and personally it's always a joy. I love explaining things, working with people as they figure out problems, and it really drives me to learn more myself.

      This is what I always wanna tell to people who say shit like that. That work can literally be fun if it wasn't surrounded by unrelated shit. I've said before I'd happily be the barista making your fancy coffees or something if doing so didn't come with no money and shit customers.
