Darling, I’ve told you several times before. I have no dream job, I do not dream of labor.
And here I am, thinking most people would actually love being part of a community by helping others with their skills.
Capitalist one way street labour? Of course not darling.
“Once per day, you will approach this console, and insert this key. Turn it, and press the red button. This will launch one billionaire, despot, or serial predator directly into the sun.”
My salary will be 0.01% of each billionaire disposed, with the rest going to feed and house the world like it fucking should.
Thank you for your service.

None. I would like to just live and do projects here and there. Contribute to open source where I can. Without the need to satisfy some working hours quota. Without the need to write invoices to clients. Without the need to earn money. Just be. Help others with technical stuff. Sometimes do nothing productive for a week.
But I’ve abandoned that dream long ago and just participate in the current system part-time.
Hear me out: train librarian
Go on…
Some large trains have a dining car or a viewing car, or even a bar. I think true luxury would be a library car. It would not need to stock a full size catalogue, since the clientele self-selects for the idle and mildly frivolous. Your ticket becomes your library card, and in that way the value of kept books can be easily recovered. It would be a draw to tourists and commuters alike.
Being the director of, or a troubleshooter for an organization which specializes on doing the right thing and helping people. Like the fictional Phoenix Foundation from MacGyver (the old series from 1985). If you can connect me to them, please don’t hesitate.
Some sort of handyman job where I can help people in need. But not where I’m crunching them for money or up selling them on junk they don’t need.
I would love to be able to program properly and then freelance from home.
Own and manage a farm like my grandpa used to do.
Probably growing tomato’s or something.
Drink margaritas on the beach.
If money is absolutely no issue, probably keep old cars on the road and do maintenance. Things like 80s or 90s vehicles in tip top shape. Nothing fancy, but I don’t like how quickly we cycle through cars. Both my cars are well over 20 years old and I’ll drive them until they physical fall apart. If I stay on top of routine maintenance they don’t need anything particularly expensive.
Work on theatrical special effects and unique displays. I’d spend so much time building my Halloween haunts.
I’d do nonstop pyrotechnic displays. I love putting on firework shows. I don’t need the biggest explosions in the sky, I’ve found my favorite effects are comets and mines. Done right, they are absolutely gorgeous and do so much more to enhance a show (both pyrotechnic and theatrical) than just about anything else.

To be successful enough in an artistic endeavour (be it music or writing or making a game or whatever), that I can just spend the rest of my life creating things while I travel and do whatever else.
-
In lieu of making money doing something that I love, any job that you can do from home or on the move, and once again I could travel or create things in my free time. My life is about half way over (if I even live as long as the average), I want to see new things and be enriched and not be in a workshop or office cubicle for the rest of my life.
-
Once I’ve seen and done and everything I want to see and do and I know that I’m going to be staying in one place for the rest of my life (and if money was no issue), then it would be something related to taking in and caring for animals.
