I'd love to be a conductor. I like their snazzy uniform.
Honestly, though, I think I'd be really good at it, and I love traveling. I don't mind being away from home overnight. B and I often take little weekend trips without each other; we're very independent. Not being a mother helps a lot too.
I'm tired of being stuck at a desk. I've always enjoyed jobs where I'm on the go, like pizza delivery.
Unfortunately, I do not live near an Amtrak "hub", but we both love Chicago and are not opposed to moving there. We've talked about it a lot, but we both have good jobs here, so there hasn't been much motion in that direction.
I'm not sure where the freight "hubs" are.
Also, I'd be up for a car attendant job. It's customer service, something I'm really good at, plus that "on the go" aspect. I know it's a lot of work, but I'm not afraid of work. It makes the day go by faster and keeps me busy. I asked about the engineer position because I think it would be more fun to "drive".
Being a subway operator would be pretty cool too, especially on the L. I love that system, and I love that city.
