Oops. Sorry to spam with my entire list. I gotta say most are at least in the ballpark.

Sweet tunderin' jesus!

ESL teacher is actually there as an option? Never made my top 40.

I'm all "Jobs for lazy, shiftless types with no morals or shame" Like journalist and actor.

Good questions in the survey, but very poor conclusions based on what I selected. Number 2 costume designer? A slight, tiny flaw being I would not enjoy designing costumes? Cook only number 3 despite that I selected �I really like� cooking (and have worked as a cook). Comedian #4 despite that it NEVER asked me about comedy and I never gave any suggestion I�d make a comedian? Nanny #8? Piss off! Might�ve been an idea to ask my gender! Dancer #12 with no dancing question (I�m no dancer, trust me).

What a load of balls! Laughing
