If you could have your ideal job...

If you could have your ideal job, what would it be and why?
How would your working day go?




Those are questions that I often ask to me. I'd love to work with animals, but I love medicine too. If I could have my ideal job, I would work as a doctor or maybe as a vet. I would have studied the career some years ago so I’d have the experience that those degrees give you. Maybe, some years before I’d have my ideal job, I have to work in others sides to earn money to pay my career and why not, to get more experience. 




But someday, I’ll get the job I want. I would like to have a full-time job to earn enough money to pay my future house and vehicle. I’d work every morning from Monday to Friday, even Saturday’s mornings if it’s necessary (I repeat it, I'm talking about my ideal job, not about the reality). I would start at 8 or 9 am in the morning, having a break between 2 and 3 pm more or less to have lunch. Then, I would finish my working day about 5 pm. 

But I’m not sure if that’s the life that I want for me. And what if I want to travel or work in an ONG? I have always loved Greenpeace and Medicos Sin Fronteras, and it would be a privilege for me to work there. It would be very different. Maybe I haven’t marked schedules, maybe I have to live in another country, and why not, maybe I’d be happy with that. I’d love to help anyone I could; I’d like to save people’s life.




The problem comes if I ever want to have a family, to have children. I must have an appropiate schedule if I want to enjoy my time with them, my husband and my pets. I’d like to have time to play with them, to help my children with their homework and to educate them the best I can. I’d like to bring them to their school and play with my pugs every day (I'd love to have some of that dogs, they're lovely). But for doing that, I know that I must have a different working schedule…
And this is something I will discuss another day!
