Mine came up with ten suggestions.
The reality is I will continue to do the thinking and let others do the work

Mine came up with so many different answers it was of no use whatsoever. !
Environmental Health Officer, Royal Marines Officer or Prison Governor.
No, no and no.
Ok, just did it again and did it properly this time:
Aircraft accident investigator, merchant navy deck officer, bodyguard, diplomatic service officer, bomb disposal technician and, um, cemetery worker.

Dead end job!
I came up with
. Creative & media (fair enough)
. Construction & trades ( never again, 30 odd years was enough)
. Emergency & uniform ( not much chance of that now)
Answering the 4 extra questions on trades came up with all the stuff I have done before (not surprising)
Answering 3 extra questions on media came up with editor or actor
Answering 1 extra question on emergency came up soldier (what I wanted to do on leaving school)

Mine came up
Creative & media - folowed through with additional questions, Actor, copy editor and some sort of web designer. I'm currently a learning & development designer & trainer.
Construction & trades - did that once, well a landscape gardener, hated it
Emergency & uniform - applied to join the RAF as a teen but failed the medical after an accident after my assessment at Biggin Hill but before I could sign on the dotted line.
As I'll be looking for a new job in January, I think I'll stick to learning design/delivery, or go drive a truck for a few years.
