Saving mankind from the Goa'ould and the Replicators by exploring new planets using the Stargate to make alliances and aquire advanced weapons and technology for Earth to fight back with.
So... I got summoned to another world with a single power: access to an online grocery store with instant delivery. I'm good at cooking but since my ability doesn't involve fighting, I got expelled from the "hero party". Now a mythical fenrir has made a familiar contract with me and protects me as long as I cook him delicious meals.
Olympic figure skater. You may find me in the ER with multiple ripped tendons and overworked muscles, maybe a dislocated joint if we are getting fancy.
Crap, I’m a high school student again? (I’ve been re-watching Malcolm in the Middle.)
No wait, this is the season Malcolm starts to work at Lucky Aide. So I’m a high school student and a minimum-wage, part-time drug store employee. Great.
I'm spending a lot of time today yelling things like "Tell me where the bomb is!" and "We're running out of time".
My wife and daughter have been kidnapped, and the people who I work with may be involved in both.
....fuck, I really don't want to go back in time 117 times to hold up a diner with a bomb looking for the perfect group of normies to volunteer to save the future world from the dangers of AI.
Shit sounds mentally exhausting and emotionally draining.
I'm the leader of an intergalactic scientific expedition to find out what happened to the ancient friendly aliens that used to live there.
Also, I get to move in to their perfectly preserved, super advanced city! It usually just floats on an ocean, but when it really has to, this baby can fly.
I've startend rewatching X-Files. So that's going to be interesting. Do I get to do the exact same things (investigate paranormal cases) or would I be a regular FBI agent?
Commander of a secret base for defending Earth from low-budget flying saucer attacks while part-time managing a film studio. Sounds like a heavy job that leaves no time for a personal life.
I manage a tiny motel in the middle of nowhere where the only guests are the family of a former video rental mogul who lost it all when their accountant committed fraud.
Le Samouraï was my last movie, do I have to do the job in the same country as the movie? Because I don’t speak French well, so being a French hitman probably wouldn’t work out too well for me. The pay would be good though I’d reckon.
Side note, excellent movie. It’s my third time I’ve seen it now, I’d highly recommend it. Just put on English captions if you don’t understand French, and enjoy. It does require paying attention to, it’s not the kind of movie to have in the background, so keep that in mind.
The last TV show I watched was an episode of the New Yankee Workshop, so I'm a celebrity woodworker now. mind you I have been thinking of starting a woodworking youtube channel for awhile now, so I guess that's happening.
I am a "hero", which means I am a criminal sentenced to undying servitude and sent to the front lines to kill the Demon hordes.
Yuusha-kei ni Shosu - "Hero" is the worst punishment in the world. Those convicted of heinous crimes are sentenced to become "Heroes" and forced to enter the mandatory military service in the war against the Demon Lords. These convicts are not even allowed to die—if killed, they will be resurrected to fight another day.
I've been watching Party Down. So, I guess I'm a bar tender for a catering company. But, I'm also about 30 years younger, have a hot girlfriend, and living in the before times, so, yeah, sign me up.
Does Dispatch count? Because if so, I’m a dispatcher/Mecha Man.
If not…I don’t really have a job, I’ve lost all my money and am stuck in a town I bought for my son for his birthday as a joke. (I just started this one, so I’m sure the situation changes somewhat as the show goes on.)
I'm a German Shepard travelling from town to town helping people and saving lives, just to receive a thank you and move onto the next place that needs me.
Because maybe tomorrow I'll want to settle down. Until tomorrow I'll just keep moving on.
Being an intern for Anne Hathaway - The Intern. Annoying movie with the skeleton of a very wholesome story, btw. I like Anne Hathaway and Robert DeNiro's chemistry. With a better script it could have been a wholesome The Devil Wears Prada.
Instead it falls into the mid 2010s big tech start up glorification and everybody is a quirky millennial stereotype. Everytime Robert DeNiro has to act in scenes with all these James Corden clones, I feel bad for him. I also feel bad that he had to work with such a shitty script. It's like parts of it was written by a proper writer and the rest was written by a brain dead fratboy.
I'm a rich guy who learns to be happy and loved without seeking ever greater riches. I throw all my money at saving a piece of nature I previously wanted to exploit for profit
So happy with this outcome, it could have been so much worse. Never been so lucky in my life.
The last thing I watched was "Don't Look Up", which means I'm an astronomer, which is certainly a career I'd enjoy. Well, ignoring all the stuff that happens after the start of the movie, I suppose.
I'm an Expendable. But not the cool action movie kind. More like the 3D printed copy of a person that they use to run experiments on. I die gruesome deaths often... For Science!
I guess I am an attractive lady AI bot that doesn't really have a profession, but is eager to people watch. I think she drew a drawing once a day. She also killed two human guys.
I now work for a secret UK government department tasked with managing all sorts of magic trouble and transdimensional incusions. I ended up here, because i was "drafted" when I almost leveled Wolverhampton when i developed an unadvisable new(to me) kind of software algorithm. This is because Magic is acutally a branch of Mathematics, and after a couple years working at the Laundry, i am quite an acomplished Computational Daemonologist. Also possessed by .. but lets not skip ahead too much. all in good time.
Holy shit thats really fun, i just go arround the world do stupid challanges with friends and drive cars. Last show i watched was grand tour for context.
I now harvest coffee like an Italian immigrant in early 1900s' Brazil^[Italian emigration inspector Adolfo Rossi undertook a investigation into the conditions faced by Italian emigrants on the fazendas, travelling undercover, disguised as a peasant. Rossi's report painted a dramatic picture of the semi-slavery conditions based on the testimonies collected: women raped, men whipped, discipline that "makes the fazenda look like a colony of convicts under compulsory residence," disease, failure to pay wages or delays in payment, misery. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italian_Brazilians]. Fuck me.
I am a hero to my people after hunting one of the universe's deadliest predators with sharpened sticks, stones, and bows... oh, and flowers and mushrooms.
I'm a regular person who now has to pretend to be a master criminal in order to not be killed by real master criminals whom I have to work with while the government hunts me?
Not descript science person in the last science place a la George Cloonry in The Midnight Sky.
I could dig it. I'd want more drugs than alcohol personally but it looks like a blast apart from slowly dying, but that's literally everything you can do. This come with drugs.
I'm a super stressed out wanna-be CEO of a tech company in northern California. Every day, someone finds a new way to screw up my plans, often it's me. My best friends are coders and I live in a house run by the most annoying man-child ever.
2025-02-17 - Employement opportunities still look bleak as we collectively imagine having jobs from the most recently watched media, when will help arrive?

I am a "hero", which means I am a criminal sentenced to undying servitude and sent to the front lines to kill the Demon hordes.
Yuusha-kei ni Shosu - "Hero" is the worst punishment in the world. Those convicted of heinous crimes are sentenced to become "Heroes" and forced to enter the mandatory military service in the war against the Demon Lords. These convicts are not even allowed to die—if killed, they will be resurrected to fight another day.

Being an intern for Anne Hathaway - The Intern. Annoying movie with the skeleton of a very wholesome story, btw. I like Anne Hathaway and Robert DeNiro's chemistry. With a better script it could have been a wholesome The Devil Wears Prada.
Instead it falls into the mid 2010s big tech start up glorification and everybody is a quirky millennial stereotype. Everytime Robert DeNiro has to act in scenes with all these James Corden clones, I feel bad for him. I also feel bad that he had to work with such a shitty script. It's like parts of it was written by a proper writer and the rest was written by a brain dead fratboy.
