People are sharing the jobs they wanted when they were 5 and it’s an innocent delight
It’s not always (ever) the case that the job you want to do when you’re 5 years old is the job you end up doing when you’re all grown up.
And a lot of the time those nascent ambitions are very funny and rather touching. Like this lot unearthed by a chap called Eric Alper after he asked this on Twitter.
Congratulations! The job you wanted to have when you were 5 is now yours. What do you now do for a living?
