If you weren't working in this industry, what would you rather be doing?

Just curious what others would be doing if the industry did not exist, or if you had a shot at doing something else. Me? I'd rather be outside doing actual physical labor. I miss working on an orchard and would love to run a greenhouse or operate a farm.

So, if you weren't doing what you are doing now, what would you do? Why?

Psychology, more specifically in the field of self harm and suicide. It's an area that's always interested me and apparently something I'm good at!

Why would you want someone to harm themselves? :p

Physics, to better understand existence as we experience it and contribute something to our civilizations knowledge of it.

Pastry Chef, I studied food for many years and had a knack for baking since it was more chemistry, trial and error type stuff.

With my physiognomy, I would surely be an actor in the adult industry. Niche films that have extraordinarily large genitalia as topic, probably. Well, I guess not everybody is made for Psychology, Physics or doing Pastries... ;)

I vote farmer.  Tough going these days unless niche, but never should go hungry.  

ROI is often proportional to work ethic and strategic investment.   Plus is kind of a long haul commitment.

I guess I'm too much of a computer geek to even imagine this industry's non-existence.

I would probably be one of MartinD's patients...

Hah.


In all seriousness though, it's quite an interesting area to study. From body language and personality traits and how they change, it's sometimess possible to see a suicide attempt coming before the person even knows it themselves.

I'd want to be in law enforcement. If I weren't married that's what I'd be doing.

My desires run similar to KuJoe's.  Of all the things I've done, some of the Army wetwork as a 97E was my favourite.  Though what I enjoyed most wasn't always guaranteed to be the task of the day... I suppose bounty hunting would be my choice.

I'd be a postman. All the fresh air and exercise you could need, no ridiculous corporate complexity, you do your day's work and go home. The complete opposite of the shithouse I currently occupy physically for 8 hours a day and mentally for 18.

I would love to be a farmer also -- it's something that my family(couple generations both sides) has been doing for a long time, and it makes me very happy. I would never be able to support myself and family as a farmer, but it's something I have wanted to do -- these days, I pretend to be a farmer, and have my tiny sandy backyard growing whatever can be sustained organically(no miracle grow, no gmo seeds, no petro chem based pest/herbicides/fertilizers, etc).
