After dealing with a rep from an extended warranty company on the phone today for about three hours I figured out what I want to do for a living. I could hear the guy playing solitaire in the background, he was as course as sandpaper and by his demeanor I am certain his nickname is "Dick".

I want to work a warranty administration call center when I grow up!

I want a desk job when I grow up. Mindless bullE36 M3 while sitting must be better than mindless bullE36 M3 and standing for 8 hours. And I think it pays better.

Plus if you happen to be a mattress salesman in the film "Gigantic" you'll get to bed John Goodman's daughter who happens to be Zooey Deschanel.

... also, you'll do shrooms with your grandfather... which is just cool.

My kid got invited by a wine salesman to play golf at a pro course outside Manhattan, drinks, tents and umbrella girls every other hole. Drinks, buffet, all you can eat hot & cold cabana girls and then was handed tickets to a Yankees game.

I want to be a wine distributor if I grow up.

I think I'd enjoy being a mattress tester. I think I'm qualified too.

Only one problem with you plan John, you would probably have to move to India with all the rest of the call centers.

When I grow up, I want to be famous, I want to be a star, I want to be in movies.

Either the one by the Bob Costascatdolls, Nickleback, or the classic "they're going to put me in the movies"

originally, obviously I heard about it from the Bob Costas Cat Dolls. Later, I found the remake by Mayday Parade on "punk goes pop", and I still kinda like it.

Music doesn't make kids want to kill kids, but Nickleback makes me want to kill Nickleback.

Could be worse - you could be an ad man. "Volvo - they're boxy, but they're good."

When you have an accident do you want sexy or safe?
