No to This Profession

ALOHA FRIDAY

What profession(s) would you NOT like to do?

I am such a fan of CSI Drama Series, from the CSI Original (Las Vegas) to CSI: Miami to New York. (Although I haven’t really followed CSI: New York). At one point, I thought I’d be fun to work in the field of forensics, investigating and analyzing crimes, and of course solving them. But then I realized that working in this field means dealing with lots of dead people. Just the thought of that makes me … disapprove.

At first, my excuse for not wanting to be a doctor or a nurse was that studying to be one means carrying books that were heavier than me. After a conversation with a friend who pursued a career in the field of medicine, my excuse just got extended exponentially. I was just so glad I wasn’t studying in the medical field or I would have flunked so terribly, because, well, half the time studying in the field of medicine happened in laboratories inspecting and studying corpse. And there were times, according to this friend, that she had lunch with her lab partner at the same table where the corpse is lying. That really threw me off, I could never do that. She did mention though that all the corpse she studied had their faces covered, and she was never tempted to peek.

Funerals are not a problem with me. I can glance at a dead person. (May she or he rest in peace). But don’t make me stare, smell or touch a corpse! So there. I don’t like any profession that has so many dealings with a corpse. So my choices for profession exclude the field forensics, medicine, coroner, etc.

Also, I will not consider working as a handler of snakes or any exotic or zoo animals. I’m too chicken to handle these types of animals. Come to think of it, I’ve never even had a pet.

This question is from Inside the Actor’s Studio. Interesting Funtrivia:

• The professions that Michael Caine and Francis Ford Coppola said they would NOT like to try were ’soldier’ and ‘executioner’, respectively. (Read more)
• Jodie Foster couldn’t be a stylish or anything that deals with clothes…
• Johnny Depp’s answer to this questions is ‘president of the United States’.
• Angelina Jolie answered with anything that is the same every single day and have her lock in small space.
• Al Pacino’s  answer to this question is ‘moving furnitures’.
