4 Jobs I Want So I Can Do Them Better Than The People Who Currently Have Them

People in these professions each have one thing that bothers me, so I want to enter the industry and eliminate that thing.

4 Jobs I Want So I Can Do Them Better Than The People Who Currently Have Them

1. Professional golfer

Aside from the obvious benefits of being a golfer on the PGA Tour, I want to be a pro golfer so I can high five every kid who lines up in between holes. If you've ever been to a golf tournament, or even watched one on TV, you've seen a bunch of kids lined up as the golfers make their way from one green to the next tee box. Most golfers high five a couple of them or even toss a ball every once in a while, but they don't look like they're having a ton of fun with it (aside from maybe Matt Kuchar). I would be known as the guy who interacts with all the fans on the course and wins 25 majors.

2. MLB pitcher

I get so mad whenever I'm watching baseball and the pitcher gets a new ball every time one ball scuffs even two of its seams on the dirt behind home plate. I want to be a professional pitcher for the sole purpose of using the same ball until it goes out of play. There's no way a tiny bit of dirt has that big of an effect on the pitch. I have pitched a ton of innings in rec baseball throughout my life, which is not far off from the major leagues, and I have never had a problem throwing a slightly dirty baseball.

3. Professional soccer player

I've talked about this before, but I hate how much soccer players flop. I want to go pro in soccer so I can be the only player in the world who never flops. Hopefully, I can be good enough that people follow my lead and stop flopping in general.

4. Chipotle worker

Moving on from sports, the one thing that bothers me most about Chipotle are workers who don't give you big enough portions. The amount of chicken you toss into my burrito bowl has no effect on your wage, so why are you only giving me half a scoop? If I worked there, I would give massive portions because no one likes having a tortilla with too much room at the end.

If I can find a way to become a multi-sport professional athlete while maintaining a part-time job at Chipotle, I can guarantee that I will improve all of the industries listed.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
