What did you want to be when you grew up?

[raindropsies]

As the title, when you were grwing up what did you want to be? Pilot, doctor, I wanted to be an ambulance person but never did.

I am now an housewife & internet trader looking for new easy ways to sell

[JudesNiceThings]

A man.( more interesting jobs and more money)

Seriously - I went into a succession of engineering and physical types of job until I was about 23, then decided that money wasn't everything, so eventually became a teacher and a psychiatric nurse manager - with a bit of time as a customs fraud investigator while my children needed me.

(And no - I'm definitely not 'a man trapped in a woman's body' or similar! LOL)

If I go back far enough, I wanted to be a farmer's wife. I had this picture of them as jolly souls who did nothing but feed chickens and make butter. I was *very* young.

I don't recall that I ever 'wanted' to be anything. A marked lack of ambition that persists to this day. I drifted into the RAF, straight from school, who gave me an apprenticeship and stuck that for 24 years. Came out aged 40 and retired.
