I’ve been thinking about this lately. I wanted to be a doctor, but my family broke apart in my teens, which affected my mental health and, subsequently, my studies. I worked in construction and as a driver on the side for a bit before replacing the former with work as a personal trainer. Now I work as a bodyguard for a rich kid, which is de facto more of a surveillance, driving, and companionship role than a security one, since his dad has hardcore professionals for times when security is really needed. I didn’t expect my life to turn out this way, to be honest.
Wow bodyguard is already uncommon, for a rich kid it feels even more rare! I surely am amazed by people able to do such jobs, it feels stressful af.
I wanted to be a judge growing up, because i wasnt interested in what we were taught at school, and law seemed interesting. Then i got to actually study it and was revolted by both the inhumanity of it and how stupidly hard it was.
Now i do seasonnal and odd jobs and am really happy not to work anywhere close to a tribunal.
It’s actually quite boring. I drive him around, report to his dad (make sure he takes care of himself, studies well, doesn’t get in trouble, etc.), tag along when he goes out, supervise, and hang out with him.
