As a kid around age 5-6, I wanted to be a garbage truck driver. I knew that jobs paid the bills, and garbage truck drivers only had to work one day a week!

If only.

I'm happily stuck with my job in special education now. I didn't know squat about myself when I was 5 :)

I'm glad I wasn't the only one that wanted to work on a garbage truck, for the exact same reason!
