What did you want to be "when you grow up"?

When I was a kid I wanted to be an ornithologist.

Cool, straightening kids' teeth is a noble cause.

Astronomer, so I can look at the "heavenly bodies" and perhaps Uranus.

Ornithology n. The branch of zoology that deals with the study of birds.

Combat engineer

"Luckily" I'm too blind to be combat arms since disarming shit on a regular basis isn't my idea of fun. Might do something rear echelon if I still hate my job by the time I'm 30.

I wanted to perform the first brain transplant.

Then I found I suck at biology. Then I also found I don't like working very hard and prefer to live life via the path of least resistance.

You can still perform the first brain transplant. Patient outcome is not your problem.

I found it's easier to work with the whole head, instead of just the brain. Fewer steps involved. Hasn't worked yet, but I'm feeling good about the next attempt.

A horse trainer, until I found out the same. And that that isn't exactly a paying profession for most people.

On a side note - hurray for medical science and good RA drugs!

Amen to that!
