Life is very short?.and a talented person like me wants to do everything in one life?.so what does one do about it ? Choose Medicineas profession to start with.
A Close friend of mine once asked me ? Why Medicine as a career choice- When this is the last thing you wanted to do this was my answer ?
?Well you see a person as talented as I am- I want to do everything. Make a movie, write a book, see the world, lead the country, start a revolution, make a test century etc etc. But you see life is too short to do everything. So there is only one way to do everything and that is to be immortal. Since so far no one has found out how does one become immortal ? I guess I will have to find that out to, so hence medicine?.so that I can do everything by finding out the secret of immortality?.
Sounds interesting, isn?t it. But others not as complicated?.they want it simple , what career must I choose ? Well the answer is simple too- choose what you would enjoy the most ! Choose a work that doesn?t feel like work.
But then the above one is well quite subjective. For example for someone cracking accounts data maybe fun ? but nor for others. So I asked myself, Which profession would have a universal appeal- that is it doesn?t remain subjective anymore. Everyone who has that profession could say- ?Well it?s not work at all !? Well I digged out a few professions which no one can complain about !
1. Censor Board member
Ever wonder why Anupam Kher made such a rukus when he was fired from the job of Censor board chief ? Answer is simple?.it?s a fantastic job to be fired from !
Afterall for a lay man like me a being a Censor board member is like being in heaven. Imagine your job profile includes- ?Watching movies and getting paid to do so !? The best part is that you get to watch it before anyone else does and of course an uncut version with all the scenes intact (you know what I mean !) ! It?s a dream job isn?t it !
2. Speaker Of Lok Sabha
The prime Minster, the defense minister, the finance minister, Atal Behari Vajpayee, Sonia Gandhi ?.all the 500 plus MPs call you ?SIR? and there pulse is in your hands- who are you ? The Lok Sabha speaker. Mr. Somnath is taking the job very seriously nowadays?All I have to say to him with due respect is ?Chill out dude?you got it all wrong. A speaker is not the one who has to keep?.he is the one who has to keep is mouth shut and listen?.
What the qualifications for the job- Well not much you must be a be an MP and you must be a good listener and you would be paid to watch the tamasha in the parliament from the best seat in the house ! The only flip side?.you are the only MP in the house who doesn?t have the license to take a nap while the parliament is in session.
3. Quality inspector for Silicon Implants Factory
?Pioneer Prosthetics? have developed a new patented device. The chief complaints about silicon implants are that though they look real?.they don?t feel the same?the R&D of Pioneer is going to change it. They have developed a new silicon implant for the bosoms that looks and feels real. Each and every one piece moves out through strict mechanical and manual quality checks. They are apparently looking for more inspectors to quality check the product (you know what I mean !) Are you up for the job ?
4. Queen of England
It?s good to have a Royal blood isn?t it ! And if you are thinking of having royal blood?.you better ask for English or Brunei one ! The Queen of England has the cosiest job in the world- nothing ! Infact the more dumber you are the less you would interfere in the government?s function and more happier the government would be ! That is working less is doing better at the job. The government pays to let you live in riches and you dint have to pay much tax and if you do it?s collected in your name after all. Being Prince Phillip is even better !!
Ironically what is the worst job in the world ? Being Price of Wales !
5. The Third umpire
Remember a historic Sachin innings ? Or that 281 by Laxman ? You wish you were there at the ground watching it live don?t you ? So why weren?t you there ? Didn?t get the ticket , or your boss didn?t give you leave for a day ? Well things wouldn?t be the same if your were the third umpire. You would get to watch the action live from the pavilion both on TV screen and in front of your eyes and in comfort of a AC cabin. Poor David Shephard he has to sweat it out in the field you can say ! What is best is that with one button you can change the stars of top cricketers and with one button you can change the course of the game ! Better than an interactive TV shows !
