But I wanted to be...a LUMBERJACK!

Stolen from Jason, I followed these instructions:

1. Go to http://www.careercruising.com/.

2. Put in Username: nycareers, Password: landmark.

3. Take their "Career Matchmaker" questions.

4. Post the top ten results.


OK, so here are my top ten results:

1. Technical Writer

2. Anthropologist

3. Writer

4. Market Research Analyst

5. Critic

6. Print Journalist

7. Translator

8. Communications Specialist

9. Political Aide

10. Activist


Most of these come as no surprise, I must admit -- look at all the writing careers! Yay! Not so sure about technical writing, given my lack of expertise in technical stuff, but there's a learning curve there, I suppose. Also "translator" -- I'm not sure how that came about, seeing as how there were no questions about languages (and my non-English speech is limited to what little high school French I remember). I also don't know how good a political aide I'd be, given the high level of frustration I often feel with politics as it's practiced in this country.

Being a print journalist would be cool -- I could put the "liberal" back in "liberal media"!
