What would you do if you weren’t a librarian?

   February 25th, 2010 Brian Herzog

Occupational Outlook HandbookAn interesting question posed at Unshelved Answers:

Given the changes in the economy and the re-organization/downsizing of many public library systems these days, public librarian jobs are few and far between. So, if you could no longer work as a librarian, what work would you do?

Read the rest of the question (including the parameters), and other peoples' answers, and give it some thought.

I posted my answer (too wordy as usual), but who knows what I'd end up doing in this situation - paperboy? volunteer fireman? park ranger? fry cook on Venus? I'm really not sure.
