I've always found this a weird concept. I don't dream about working, I don't want to work. Making any activity I enjoy a job will automatically destroy the enjoyment as I am now obligated to do it.

So no dream job here, just a dream to have enough money to live comfortably without needing a shitty job!

OP answered that their dream job is cuddling with cats. I think you're taking the question too seriously.

the question means: if you could choose any job, including ones you’re not qualified for, and magically be qualified for it and have the job, what would you choose?
astronaut, for example…

Cool story but I knew what the question "meant" and answered it already.....

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

well pretending like you don’t know what it means because you read a tweet complaining about the idea of dream jobs and wanted to repeat that as your own observation is a very uncool story

[–] [email protected] -1 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

What the fuck are you talking about? where is there a tweet in this post? Where am I "pretending" I don't know what the question means?

I stated clearly that I thought it was a weird concept but that doesn't constitute "pretending not to know" something.

I dunno if you are confused and responding to the wrong comment or something but either way jog on.

Oh I see, some random person "tweeted" the same opinion that I have and you just presumed that I couldn't possibly have formulated the same opinion as this person and then given said opinion in a relevant discussion thread elsewhere on the internet?

Well if that is what you want to think then, cool?

Cheers for letting me know so that in the future I can do a search to see if anyone else in history has independently formed the same opinion as me and expressed it in a public forum. I wouldn't want to look like such an idiot again!

My saviour!

like you haven’t already seen that a million times.

my main point is: pretending like you don’t understand the question and taking everything extremely literally isn’t deep or clever.

the fact that you’re repeating someone else’s argument just makes it lame

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Ah yes the assumption that because you have seen something many times, everyone must have!

There was no pretending to not understand the question either, I literally answered the question with my opinion.

Either way this conversation isn't going to go anywhere because you immediately made so many assumptions reading my first response that you decided then and there who is was, my experiences in life and how I'm trying to be so "clever" or some other shit.

Have a good day man!
