It is rather cool. And you can probably combine the other three into one job.

Stomper Girl said...

So, still a chance for the other three then?

Is Julia interested in Egypt? You'd best hurry before she steals away all of your ambitions.

Perhaps, in return for stealing your job, Julia could offer you a secret government posting to Egypt where, posing as a journalist writing about the pyramids, you could actually spy on someone or something.

...and doesn't that sound like a job scenario a 12 year old would come up with?

Sorry M you are way too smart to be a journo and you have some concern about whether what you do is professional or done in the correct way and you have some integrity. These are all entirely inappropriate traits for journalists. You could be a great egyptologist and/or spy though.

Now that I look at those traits I see they probably ruled you out of politics too (though some politicians are quite clever in a rat cunning way).

Wonderful post! It made me laugh instantly at the end of a trying day and fair cheered me up. Just my kind of humour – thank-you.

I had all of those except Prime Minister (obviously). I never wanted to be U.S. President though. it looked like such a BORING job to me!

Who is this simple Simon with his trite generalisations about journalists?
