This is funny. Based on my true answers to the questions in quiz I could retrain as a cosmetic surgeon, a beauty therapist or an ornithologist.

Have sent this to others that I work with.....

It's animal care (I'd happily adopt strays), health care ( not if it means dealing with bodily fluids :( ), and social care( I guess that's what I used to do) for me.
Also engineering and maintenance...nope!
Or environment and land...I doubt it, though I like my house plants.

I emerged with jobs in the health service or Arts, all to do with those areas, which I suppose ties in with teaching and coaching. Surprised they didn't mention teaching.

I don't know why they think I'd be good in animal care or emergency services. But I'd agree with two of the top three and several of the rest. None of them were the jobs I've actually done, though.

just checked my options in Travel and Tourism further. I'd make a good travel agency manager ... or housekeeper. (I mean hotel room attendant.)

[ubasses]

It came up with 7 options, 2 of them put together would cover the job I did.

Daft, innit?

[jno]

not entirely, Tilly, I would have thought it quite helpful (though hardly definitive) 50 years ago.

[margarettom]

I got teaching etc. and I was a teacher, so I was quite impressed.

[Cloverjo]

This is so funny. Thanks for replies. It’s so ridiculous I can’t believe the gov has still got it up there online. Honestly, I’ve been chuckling all evening.

[Mozz71]

Seems like I'm best suited for various forms of care work. Social, health and animal care all came up.

[Cloverjo]

Well, there you go, mozz, your new career ;)

[Mozz71]

It probably should be animals. I find people problematic.

Hilarious, I got celebrant, chauffeur or pest controller!
