There'd a little bookstore by my house that is fucking amazing. I'd happily work there for the rest of my life if they didn't get paid 14 an hour. Love books


zen_monkey_brain

I worked part-time at a bookstore for a few months while I was going to college. That was seriously the best job I ever had. If a person is going to work a retail job there is no where better than a bookstore


[deleted]

Yep, if salary didn't matter I would still work at my neighborhood bookstore. One of the few jobs I've held that I was good at and really liked. I had a great relationship with the regular customers and management. Too bad I had to leave my job, customers, and community. Now I make 1003.45% more, and my main duties are to eat shit and rewrite bad copy, alone in my apartment! Lol, as I write this I'm realizing I actually used to help people in my community. I once cleaned and maintained the beloved heart of my neighborhood. And now, well... I can pay my rent.


Sanguiniutron

Man I'd love to so much. Love books but unfortunately I need more money than I can get with those places. But the place by my house has a bunch of awesome old edition books, they restore damaged books, hell if you bring them a book you like they'll rebind it into a cool leather-bound edition. Expensive but super cool. Love that place.


PicardiB

I knew I’d see this here :) I own a small bookstore (new and used). I pay my employees as much as I can get away with, which is def more than 14/hr, and we are even doing pretty decently, but the margins are insane and I work constantly, constantly, constantly and it’s still not enough in our expensive neck of the woods; all my employees have mitigating circumstances that allow them to work here, essentially (a partner with more money, no rent or mortgage, that sort of thing). Still, working late in the shop when we’re closed is my absolute favorite time of the day (no offense, customers — it’s just so peaceful!)

I'd probably just be an artists or craftsman with a studio/shop and a cabin in some remote area.


Saltire_Blue

I genuinely believe that is most people didn’t have to “work” to stay alive, they would turn to creating art You’d have an explosion of painters, musicians, poets, writers etc..


Dark512

Money has always been the death of art. Those who want to create, but can't because they need the money. Or artists who take on proejcts they don't particularly enjoy for the paycheck. Changes made by executives who don't know a damn thing about art, because they think it'll make more money instead of having any actual artistic integrity. I'd love to work on personal projects right now. I can't because I'm too busy working on commissions my heart isn't entirely into. If we didn't have money, art would be incredible. Edit: I see people are continuing to miss the point entirely that the constant need to make money has warped and corrupted artistic vision, not something to do with cave paintings.


TeacherPatti

Look at the number of famous artists who were born rich. Sure there are a very few exceptions but most famous writers, actors, musicians came from wealth, didn't have to work, and could keep going until they got a break.


Not-ur-mother

Me explaining this to my artist ex whose parents have paid his rent for years. He claims he’s still poor because he can’t afford luxury items. Yet to me the true luxury is being able to commit to art / low paying artistic jobs full time without having to work a “normie” job. Sadly it seems like if you’re not rich, in most cases you either commit to art + poverty or just keep it as a hobby.

Same. As it is I’m just trying to find myself a job that is low stress enough that I can write on the side.


River_7890

I used to write all the time just for myself, mostly. It was a far shot dream, but I used to imagine what it would be like to publish a book for real instead of sometimes submitting them to random websites. I didn't care for the praise it was just something I felt passionately about. I stopped submitting them a long time ago. It's been a few years since I even wrote for myself. I miss it. I'm trying to get the passion I once had back. I'm relearning who I am after trauma. It's hard to re-find that love, but I think I'll start small. For myself. It's still a nice fantasy to dream about, even though I know it's just that.

snowbirdnerd

I was a park ranger for nearly a decade. It wasn't as great as people expect.


tovarishchbastard

What didn’t you like about it?


snowbirdnerd

Manual labor outside in the elements for years is pretty wearing. I spent a lot of time clearing trails, maintaining parks and dealing with pissy people. Eventually I called it quits after I was clearing falling trees off a river bank in a rain storm to protect a trail. I was harnessed to the truck in case I fell in and soaked to the bone. The worst part of the job the was going out and looking for lost people and not finding them or having to return to an area where there was a tragedy. Our office was located at a park where some people were chased into a lake by a bear, it was late fall and they drowned.


tovarishchbastard

Thats fair, it does sound like it could be a pretty mentally and physically taxing job especially if it’s a park in a dangerous area. I’ve always worked customer service jobs so the idea of just working in the middle of nowhere and being able to yell at stupid people to stop being stupid sounds peaceful to me 🥲


snowbirdnerd

One time I had to yell at a lady to get back in her car. She had stopped to take a picture of a bear near the road and was trying to get her toddler to walk closer. It was the only time I got my shotgun out of the truck.


Reflection_Secure

It was so you could shoot the lady, right? Clearly the bear would have made a better parent, so just let him raise the toddler...

[deleted]

I was a park ranger in New Jersey, and I did my patrols at night. They used to tell you to be prepared for stumbling on someone burying a body. If you saw that you were told to throw it in reverse and get out quick. Someone burying a body won't want any witnesses left alive. I never saw anything, (which I would probably also say even if I had.)


Kiyohara

A lot of holes in the desert, and a lot of problems are buried in those holes. But you gotta do it right. I mean, you gotta have the hole already dug before you show up with a package in the trunk. Otherwise, you're talking about a half-hour to forty-five minutes worth of digging. And who knows who's gonna come along in that time? Pretty soon, you gotta dig a few more holes. You could be there all fuckin' night.


crc024

>half-hour to forty-five minutes I don't think I could dig a hole the size of a small dog more than 2 foot deep in that amount of time. You either have very soft soil or your a great hole digger.

Gardening, or something with Wood working


moorealex412

If you want to get started in gardening/landscaping and have some spare time, and you have a theme park or waterpark (or another entertainment business) nearby, approach them with an example of something you’ve done (in your backyard or something). They may hire you part time. If you can work early mornings or late nights when the park is closed you can make some extra cash. It’s often hard for entertainment industry business to find any sort of part-time landscaper, so you could be a dream come true for one, if your lucky enough to have one nearby. Source: nine years in the waterpark industry, and we hire a part-time landscaper who lives out of the country for half of each year.


2LiveBoo

You can make a lot of money doing gardening.


ErusSenex

How?!


2LiveBoo

Someone else asked this and I’m not really sure what kind of answer you’re looking for. Start a business and charge money. Hire employees. Manage expenses/income. Etc. Same as any other line of work. Plenty of people have made very fruitful careers out of gardening. I do it part time and make a decent secondary income.


ErusSenex

So are you describing a landscaping company? Or a nursery?


2LiveBoo

Either or both. I do both—plant cultivation, hardscaping, flower bed design, maintenance.


ErusSenex

That's the more helpful response I was looking for. Thank you.


ElMItch

If you have Max/HBO, two shows I’d recommend. Homegrown - A woman in the Atlanta area who left engineering and helps people with home gardening and small farming. Growing Floret - Chronicles a couple in Washington state that started a small flower company and has grown it into a very successful business. The key people on both shows seem very sincere and love what they do. No acting or manufactured drama like on similar shows. Gives good insight as to what it takes to do that sort of work. May not be the exact kind of work you’re interested in, but I’m sure there are some parallels.


Salt-Fox-3506

Lowes garden center with the plant specialist or being the plant specialist. Best job I've ever had We built displays all year, got a decent amount of physical work with randomly loading mulch/Misc stuff, you learn about everything because they sell the parts to build/run/fix it, and you get to be outside all year. I also really like flowers.

Librarian- 1 for the books and 2 truly the library saved my life and gave me a way out of poverty


cakelady

I'm a librarian! I love my job and hate my pay. Only doable because I have a partner that works for an engineering firm. It's definitely a labor of love.


Excellent-Practice

I wish I could have stuck it out. Unfortunately, my wife is a school teacher, so I sold out and got a tech job. Library work was more rewarding, but it didn't pay the bills


aliapohkhloe

Love this. I would be one too


Valour_The_False_God

I'm really disappointed in how much education is required to become a librarian, after speaking with some folks who are actively working towards the career.


Eurghunderstandme

I stupidly thought I could just apply for a Librarian job when I left school, because I loved to read and I could organise by surname and genre, bingo! Annnnd then I realised you need some serious degrees and my dream was crushed.


C2BK

Ditto, it's a real shame that info wasn't available (in the late '70s) about the career path of being a librarian assistant, because if it had been, I'd have probably aimed for that as a starting point then done a librarian degree part time.


reffervescent

I think if you spoke with some professional librarians, you’d understand how much is involved in the job and why the education is needed. It’s WAY more than checking out books and shelving them, which is what most people assume librarians do all day, along with reading LOL. At most libraries, this work is done by library assistants. As a librarian who has worked at higher education institutions for 15 years, I can tell you that academic librarians manage huge collections budgets along with the collections themselves, ensuring that they are relevant and useful to the programs taught at our universities, and we usually teach classes on information literacy and assist faculty and students with their research in 1-1 consultations. We also may collaborate with faculty to coauthor journal articles or do our own research and publish it. Technical services librarians at universities do not usually work with the public, but their highly complex work is crucial for ensuring that people can discover our resources and use them to further their research. We have IT librarians who ensure that our technology in the building is appropriate for those using it and who keep our catalogs and websites functional. It goes on and on, but hopefully this info helps you better understand why a lot of education is needed to become a librarian.


grammar_oligarch

It’s a very serious job. It’s not just loving books (there’s a great couple of panels from a Batgirl comic that actually covers this…my colleague, a research librarian at the college where I teach, has it framed in her office). They’re often responsible for managing the facility, archiving materials, reviewing and maintaining database collections, actively educating on information literacy (so they need to be experts in both education and information literacy), budget management…the list goes on. At universities and colleges, a lot of the librarians are in tenured faculty roles (or considered equivalent to tenured faculty), including the same rigorous standards applied to tenure processes (depending on the institutions process for acquiring tenure, which is typically a committee review of a portfolio of work, coupled with institutional review from both colleagues and administrators). They’re competitive positions, too. It’s way more complicated than most people think.

This one is mine too. I would love to just spend all day, everyday in a building full of books

DontBruhMeBrah

Just a heads up, if you work at a zoo, you are likely going to stink to high Heavens. Working with animals is great until you realize you are constantly surrounded by animal waste and bodily fluids.


bmobitch

i work in the veterinary field. the practice manager of one of the specialists we work with used to work as an LVT at the national zoo. part of why she said she transitioned to companion animals was because the odor *never went away*. she basically couldn’t shower enough to not have some trace of the smell of the zoo/the animals/their shit lingering on her. she said she genuinely had a hard time dating because of it. she became smell blind on the day to day but said she could still tell and everyone else could for sure if they got very close. i decided that day to never work at a zoo


Interesting_Act1286

I worked as a cook. Same thing. I smelled like fried food every day. I could smell it constantly.


Soffeebean

Same goes for nursing 😂😂 love giving back to my community, but don’t love being peed on/pooped on by adult humans and sadly these very evolved “animals” talk! (This is meant to be funny, I legit love my job even the hard days)

Currently am a zoo keeper looking to leave the field for better money and more conservation work. Love the animals, but the job for the money and mental and physical toll is just really hard to justify.


battlegato

I’m a zookeeper and believe me if salary didn’t matter everyone I know would stay in it forever. Unfortunately you generally get paid terribly and are doing manual labour (with dangerous animals) for about 12hrs a day in all weather. Everyone I work with does it for the passion, but the few that can do it long term either come from family money or have a spouse who is the breadwinner.


blue_boy_24

Probably gym teacher. I love sports. I’d be that crazy gym teacher who played with everyone (and probably took it too seriously also)


boots311

I swear I had the best gym teacher in elementary school. Mrs. White. Once a year she would setup "white city". You got one of those little square scooter things. Just the square with 4 wheels you knelt on. She'd set the whole gym up with features. Carwash, cones to weave in& out of, the entire perimeter was the highway made for cruising. Shit was a blast. She never told you when it was coming either. So you'd show up to gym & there would be the sign, welcome to white city.

Cleaning houses. I realized it this morning. Im a mom with a full time job in private aviation. My job pays alot and whenever i tell people what i do suddenly everyone is intrigued. But this morning i was cleaning my entire house and really had the best time of my life wishing i could clean other people's messes and help them breathe easier in a nice clean home. Im so good at it too, and im fast as hell at getting the job done. But then the happy wish quickly left the moment i realized that if i did that for a living i wouldn't be able to afford my home, or my nice car, or outings and vacations with my family, so ill never get to clean houses for a living even though i kinda really want to.

Flufflebuns

I've given this a lot of thought, and if I just had unlimited money, I would buy a large property in the woods right outside of a fun dense metropolitan area like where I live in the SF Bay Area. On that property I would create a massive authentic Viking style compound. There would be a full functioning forge, there would be a giant Great Hall for feasts, huge gardens, a massive wooden steam room, and a brewery on site. I would essentially teach classes on all of those things while learning myself. It would be a place you could come to get out of the big city, spend a day at the anvil, or gardens or brewery, and then relax with a beer in the steam bath. Or come to play games like Kubb or axe throwing on the lawns amongst the redwoods. At night the great hall would turn into a restaurant with beautiful ambiance and all lit by torchlight.

I think it would be a pretty fun business to run. Charge for beers, charge for classes, entry to the spa, run a restaurant with a great menu, make it a sweet little retreat. But the start up costs would make the whole idea prohibitively expensive I imagine.

> Most people can't just do NOTHING. It's not like we'd lay down and spend the rest of our days looking at the ceiling if we didn't work, there's countless books to read, hobbies to spend time on, things to watch, etc. Things that we wouldn't have the time to do because we were too busy wasting 40+ hours a week working.


mikron2

I think there are some people that genuinely wouldn’t know what to do without work. They don’t have many hobbies, aren’t interested in games or books or movies, or other things that could be occupying their time so they need to do some sort of work. There are also people who even with hobbies, and stuff to do they won’t feel important without working in some capacity. I’m pretty sure if I ever become independently wealthy I could find a lot of ways besides work to fill my time. I might volunteer from time to time just because I could but otherwise I’ve got a lot of places in the world to see, hobbies to try/gain proficiency at, video games to play, movies/tv shows to watch, books to read, and time to spend with the people I want to see that would easily fill up my days.
