What did/do you want to be when you grew/grow up?

Recommended Posts

Go after whatever you've dreamed of doing. It may not be 'easy' but, you put your mind to it... you can do it! You were a DZO. I grew-up, dreaming about doing different things and accomplished all of them but one... unlimited hydroplane driver. You just set your mind to it and go after it.

US ARMY Golden Knight. I am still in pursuit of that dream, and am determined to make it or die trying.

I wanted to be an Astronaut. I had an Uncle that worked at NASA and got to got to Space camp before it was even called Space Camp.

I think it is so sad how the current Space program is going. Kids no longer dream of being Astronauts and going to the Stars. This dirt ball is filling up quickly, We gotta get off this rock sooner or later.

always wanted to be a truck driver, so i did it for about 10 years, then gave it up because of my kids. i'd love to go back to it, but i have a job now that pays fairly well and i like the lifestyle it affords me, if not the job itself.

I would think, you'd be highly qualified to be a flight attendant! You have all the experience from being a DZO! Waiting on people and putting-up with various degrees of bull-shit!:D:D:D
Seriously, I don't believe, there are any restrictions besides, good health. You seem to have the personality plus and the good looks... hey, go for it!;)

I was thinking about becoming a Flight Attendant, do they have height restrictions?


I dated a FA for a while who said she was 5' tall, but I'm 6' and she seemed to be more than a foot shorter. I figure if you can see over the beverage cart, you're good to go.

A veterinarian--from K-grade to sophomore year of college, though the types changed from small animal, to wild animal, to marine mammal.

Then I realized vets go to school longer than doctors, don't make 1/4 as much bank, and still have the mounting student loans. Soooo, I figured I'd bank, volunteer and donate instead.;)

I wanted to be in the military, or a cop or a fireman. Started down one path and that option was taken from me, so I became a professional skydiver for a while. Then moved on to a "real" job...or atleast one with a steady pay check and good benifits.

Everything has definately worked out very well. Doing something I enjoy, married someone I love and I still get to skydive quite a bit.:)

You think passengers would have a problem if I wore my chute on the flight?:D:S
The other thing that bothers me is that I would save my ass first, I would be the first idiot to run/hop/skip and or jump over seats to get my ass to the inflatable slide first!!!:D:S Any kind of turbulance and that beverage cart becomes my bestest friend!!:D:D
