Friday Queries -- On the Job

[kybearfuzz]

TGIF! This week has been a long one. My recent training had me thinking about job opportunities and my future direction. Naturally, it influenced the questions I am posing to anyone who wants to play...

1. If people change jobs/careers four times in their lifetime, what would you likely try next?
   
2. How or why did you choose your college major or field of study? Do you work within this field?
   
3. What was your worst boss like (who is, of course, NOT your current boss because he/she is wonderful)?
   
4. They are filming a sequel to Brokeback Mountain and you are hired as the casting director, who do you pick to be your new hot and heavy cowboys?
   
5. Could you be a psychic? I'm thinking of a number between 1 and 100, what is it? What would you want to be your prize if you get it right?

1. Lottery winner and man of leisure!
   
2. I picked chemistry when I was a junior in high school. I really loved how chemistry worked, how two innocuous things could be mixed together to make something relatively dangerous. I also love to figure things out, so analytical chemistry was my bag. Really, it was like learning how to do magic. And I used to work as a chemist, but I put the knowledge to use now when I review laboratory information for work.
   
3. My worst boss was a crotchety old Baptist idiot. He always said he was a good Baptist man, but had cheated on his first wife and was unfaithful to his second. If you weren't a white Baptist male over 40, you didn't know you ass from a hole in the ground. Strangely enough, I met all of those criteria except age. We locked horns regularly until I transferred away. Later I found out that he didn't realize the huge volume of work I produced until I left. What a loser...
   
4. For a younger crowd, maybe Liev Schrieber and Jeremy Piven (if he'll stop shaving his chest, darn it!). If I were going the daddy route though, I'd pick Sam Elliot and Tom Selleck (or maybe Kevin Kline and a bearded James Gandolfini).
   
5. Now this wouldn't be fair as I know the number :D

Damnit, I was gonna say 42, but I thought it was too obvious! And I don't even like Hitchiker's Guide! Though, since 42 was the first thing I actually typed, that means you have to come cuddle anyway ;)
