News You Can Bruise for 2007 September 13

In keeping with today's theme of doing things Sumana already did, I took a career quiz. Here are its top recommended careers for me, with careers I've seriously considered bolded like so many peanuts.

1. Website Designer
2. Industrial Designer
3. Historian
4. Computer Programmer
5. Fashion Designer
6. Cartoonist / Comic Illustrator
7. Cartographer
8. Sign Maker
9. Interior Designer
10. Electrician
11. Cabinetmaker
12. Electronics Assembler
13. Costume Designer
14. Set Designer
15. Makeup Artist
16. Computer Engineer
17. Video Game Developer
18. Multimedia Developer
19. Mathematician
20. Anthropologist

"Writer" showed up at 34. Looking back, my would-be careers tended to fall through due to me not having the relevant skills (cartoonist, mathematician, professional baseball player) or the market not existing anymore (multimedia developer? What is this, 1994? Well, it was at the time.) or the work just being not very exciting up close (video game developer, website designer, paleontologist).
