Man wtf? Noone wanted to be a spy like in Red Alert?

"Commander."
"For king and country."
"On my way."


That was the only thing I dreamt of really. Having a cool british accent and avoiding soviet guard dogs
That and being an astronout ofc

I live this dream everyday .

But my soviet dogs caught and ate all the british spies...and im not masohistic enough to dream about being eaten alive.

Dreaming to be james bond hough, thats something else. The dude always survives, he drives great cars and sleeps with hot women + the accent and great hair. Much more like it.

WTF guys, the spies were totally useless in RA.
On the other hand, the Cuban terrorists in RA2 were pure pwn! Too bad they died in every mission, so no great career prospects.

I mostly played the missions. I loved that one mission where Tanya is captured and you have to rescue her.

Yeah, and the stupid blonde was always in a different castle

I've relatively recently been interested in forming an all-female assassin squad like Bill.

I wanted to either be a regional warlord or skip over working and move straight on into retirement.

Astronaut
Professional Wrestler

Now that I've grown up a little bit I'd like to become a novelist/poet.

Film director.

My less naive, less creative, money hungry adult version now secretly wants to become an Ari Gold kind of agent.

lol me too, even when I found out how boring archaeology really was I still wanted to be one

I used to want to be in the FBI or CIA too, but then I found out how shitty THAT was and changed my mind pretty quick. You know there's only like 3 or 4 federal agents per state (sometimes they cover a few states)? How lame is that?

Anyway, like many other kids in the world i was fascinated by space and sci-fi stuff. As a result, it came naturally that i wanted to be an astronaut (what a novelty). When i realised that this could not be the case, i was deeply traumatised, something that made me pursue a degree in psychology. Whilst im still in the process of self-cognitive-therapy, i also have a research question. Why all bloody kids in the world want to leave earth!?

They see movies and documentaries about it, and it all seems like an awesome adventure to them. Also, kids have a lot of limitations placed on them, so maybe going to space represents the ultimate freedom and lack of limits in their minds.

I didn't really know then and I still don't know now.

I mostly wanted to do something technical (car design, aircraft engineering etc) but I did the square root of fuckall in highschool and achieved barely enough to get by. I regret not applying myself more, because looking back on things, I didn't have enough fun to justify slacking as much as I did.

Having said that, I think I now prefer having more interests and hobbies instead of a job I love. I really like my job, I'm good at it and I like my company. But it's just a job. I've always gone at work with full commitment but I don't get too attached to them. They're just sources of income which allow me to do other things I love.

I guess my fear would be landing a job that matches my dreams more, then working at it and it ruining my happy hobby (if that makes sense)
