    I wanted to be a copper, my sister is one and really likes it.

    I applied and was mid-recruitment when the freeze on applications happened. About 6 months later I received a letter to say all applications being processed has been cancelled for the forseeable future.

    I got the job I interviewed for this morning though so everything is rosey now!

    Yes

    At 9 I decided I was a future electronic engineer.

    Now I've finally become a former one.

    In all my years growing up I don't ever recall wanting to be a project manager but that is what I ended up being. As a kid I wanted to be lots of things; a footballer, a rock star, a fireman but I never achieved any of my early ambitions.

    Not yet

    I work for a living.

    But I might start entering the lottery to at least give myself a fighting chance of achieving the ambition of sitting about the house all day doing sod all.

    Wanted to be a footballer, ended up being a solicitor, so no!

    Would love to run my own business, perhaps property related. There's still time!

    Because of Dream Team I wanted to be a football agent for a bit, then wanted to work in PR or Marketing and then changed my mind again and applied to go in Army but got rejected. So I went to work in a call centre & now I am a manager at one.
