My result was "crime novelist."
QuoteDuring the 1950's, crime novels were at their peak, and you would have been one of the best writers around!
You are a very imaginative, creative and thoughtful person. You know how to get inside people's heads and draw them in to an incredibly engaging story, and that's exactly what you'll do.
You will write about spies, mysterious murders and complicated bank robberies. Your imagination will spark millions, and at least two of your novels will become instant classics. That is an amazing career in our book!
HOW DO YOU KNOW ME, INTERNETS?
QuoteYou would be a spy!
Smart, intuitive, resourceful, sophisticated and brave. These are just some of the words that can be said about you. You would be a legend in the spy community, known only by whispers and ghost stories.
You are a very private person, you don't like to reveal a lot about yourself, and that will come in handy in your line of work. You will uncover great secrets, stop a dozen terrorist attacks and assassination attempts. A lot of people will be in debt to you, and you will use that advantage to anonymously help the needed. You truly are a hero.
...... :2funny:
I got spy. 8)
I bet you liked those bubble cigars, didn't you, Star? ^-^
Also a crime novelist. As a person who likes data, charts and testable models more that he probably should, I don't know if I would call myself imaginative or creative. Shocked. I'm shocked that a 5 minute interest quiz could have failed to properly identify my traits. :'(
The internet is infallible, SDR. You have been pigeon-holed.
QuoteYou would be a phone operator!
You are a very calm, resourceful and smart person. You love to challenge yourself, you are good under pressure and you are very reliable.
Any company would be lucky to get you, but only one job actually has what it takes to truly challenge you.
True, it doesn't sound like the most luxurious job in the world, but if you're looking for a challenge, it doesn't get any better than this. Thousands of calls in an hour, hundreds of phone numbers and a lot of cables are involved in this modern operation and you are smart enough to navigate it all under pressure. You are truly a remarkable person with a bright future!
Not quite sure what to make of this.
Being dyslexic I suspect I might horribly screw up several connections, making me more suitable for something else!

I liked the gum cigarettes with the powdered sugar.
QuoteYou would be a milk man!
During the the 50's, the milk man was on of the most beloved people around. The milk man knew everybody in the neighborhood, get free pieces of pie as a sign of gratitude, and wear the most beautiful uniform ever.
You are a very warm, friendly and passionate person. You love meeting new people, telling jokes and just enjoying a nice day in the sun. You are all about the simple and enjoyable life, and now you have the perfect job to go along with that lifestyle.
They left out the part where I would be banging lonely housewives all day.

As soon as I saw "mirth" and "milk man," this was my immediate thought. I didn't need to read the rest of it. :2funny:

'Zactly what I was thinking. Wasn't there a novel about you? The Milkman only rings twice?
Sweet!

You would be a newspaper cartoonist!
You are a very bright, talented and funny person. You don't take life too seriously and you believe that life was meant to be enjoyed.
You will work as a newspaper cartoonist, where you would have the amazing opportunity to provide people with a daily laugh, one that is so needed in these harsh times.
I'm definitely okay with this. O0

Ha!
Huh.
Put me in the 'Spy' ranks, though I never would have thought so. Guess I missed my calling.
Drat.
Phone operator, really :o
