There's hundreds of job out there, and people have been swapping jobs for reasons since early civilzation.

Even then, theres always some type of job people havent do yet, and some other job that people avoid taking, for reasons.

Therefore, what job that you don't do for a living ?

For a time I was very envious of youtubers and internet stars who made tons of cash for hardly any work.

I've since taken more of quaker stance. I think hard work itself is inherently rewarding. At the airport I used to volunteer at I worked with an 87 yo man. One of the things he taught me was that the way to live a long and healthy life is to never retire. Only to downgrade to less demanding jobs.

My grandfather is similar, he's been running the same law practice for the last 50 years. My great grandfather worked every day until he was hospitalized shortly before his death.

Though I would never turn away tons of easy money. I think work and even seemingly unimportant jobs will be more fulfilling.

Just some random thoughts while I wait for the bus.

I positively refuse to ever be a fast food worker. Idk why, but I see that as the ultimate low of decent jobs. Also anything illegal like prostitution or drug dealing or whatever. I also don't want to be an office worker for my life. Maybe for a bit if I must, but never as a life time career.

For numerous reasons I am not a prize fighter in an underground boxing ring. Blood sport is dangerous and I’d absolutely suck at it.

Call center frontline agent. I did it a few times which ended up killing my health temporarily. I also don't raise donkeys.

I don't wash those stupid silicone bags that Husband decided we HAD to have. He uses them. He washes them. I'll stick with Pyrex, thank you very much.

Any sort of sales agent - insurance, realtor, etc. Agent that depend on you finding or making your own customers, keeping consistent customers, making sure they pay, and then making sure you get your own cut out of that...it seems like hell. I much prefer a steady, boring job.
