This is inspired by something I wrote in the Doctor Who thread about there being a secret organisation dedicated to ensuring that the Doctor's memory was kept pure and not diluted by commercialism and rip-offs.
I thought that would be quite a fun job to do (even if you weren't into Doctor Who, then commanding armies of ninjas to steal offending books and wipe their authors' hard drives would be good), and wondered what you'd like to be when you grow up.
This is supposed to be a bit of fun and not an excuse to list porn films you'd like to appear in or football teams you'd like to play for. Oh, and boss of the world, Microsoft, Fort Knox etc. is a little bit dull. It should be something that you actually have a slight chance of doing one day, if only following a bizarre series of coincidences.
A job that I've fancied for a while is to be on the FA Premier League dubious goals panel. It's a real entity, and people really get paid to sit around and decide whether a certain goal was an own-goal or who scored it if there was any doubt at the time. Unfortunately the goal actually has to count to be referred to the dubious goals panel so no-one could reverse the decisions of a certain Russian linesman in 1966, but you could decide to deny certain players certain goals.
I'd also like to be the person who chooses which particular bunch of oafs are locked away into the Big Brother house, Fame Academy or whatever each series.... There could be some fun to be had there.
