The Perfect Job

BTW - Here is my latest list of ideal jobs:

1. US Diplomat - traveling the world for 2-4 years at a time. Imagine: the State Dept. PAYS for you to learn a new language, in addition to taking care of housing. You arrive at a new destination with locals ready to help you learn the culture. This is the closest thing to perfect that I can imagine. It fills me with a sense of purpose and idealism. It makes me swoon with the international possibilities. I can't stand it - it's too exciting and too impractical with a genius husband to think about too much. And yet...


2. Public Servant - I'm really starting to be intrigued about becoming involved in local politics. It's something I've always thought about, but certain professional realities are making it seem more like a possibility and less like a daydream. Ideally, being able to affect both local and foreign policy issues at once would be my preference.


3. International Communications Director - for a large company with offices throughout the world. Ideally I would be sent to these offices for extended periods of time (up to a month) to oversee their communications practices and standardize messaging.


4. Executive Director or Director of Marketing - for an international language school. Ideally I would like to travel abroad to market the school to various audiences. As a result of my own experiences at such schools, which was PHENOMINAL to save the least, I would love the possibility of reliving the experiences of each and every student as they learn their new city one step at a time. I could help them become at ease, give them tours, plan events, find housing for them, and just enjoy the experience.
