A quick question

[House of Mustard]

I need some help, and I don't want to say any more, for fear of tainting your answers.

Please, anyone, give me a list of occupations and/or hobbies that lend themselves toward daydreaming.

Thanks!

The Internet.

Novels.

Anything related to sci/fi.

Thats what tends to set off my day dreaming.

Menial jobs of any sort.  I've worked plenty and I can tell you that performing mundnumbingly repetitive work that takes very little thought lets the mind wander, and it will.

Actual jobs:
Lawn mowing.
Security Guard on the night shift.
Experienced delivery driver.

Any kind of job that requires you to use your imagination

I.E. Student, Writer, designer, Artist, Game developer, and other jobs of that nature.

Also mindless jobs, like posted befor, any job that allows you to not pay attention to what you are doing

Working on any section of an assembly line. Knocking doors as a missionary (oh admit it, you did it too). After-hours janitorial work.

Thanks guys -- I like all of that.

Here's a litt more direction: what is a job/hobby that draws you into a fantasy world?  ie, rather than daydreaming because you're bored, you daydream because you're caught up in what you're doing.

Being a Page. Whenever I work I'll pay attention to shelving books for a grand total of about five minutes, then I go off on autopilot and drift off, and with the books there it's hard not to drift towards a fantasy world.

Whenever i'm in the middle of reading/watching/playing a good story, I tend to daydream about it during breaks, or when it's finished (sequels!).

[Spriggan]

I daydream while I drive, do it every day.

[The Holy Saint, Grand High Poobah, Master of Monkeys, Ehlers]

coding.

roleplaying.

raising kids.

[Skar]

Night shift security guard really lends itself to what you describe. As long as your daydreams tend to be martial in nature anyway.

Packing boxes in a warehouse. For 10 hours a day.

LOTS of daydreams.  Anything repetitive.

There ARE jobs like that?

Some graphic design jobs and art direction jobs. Particularly if your a scifi/fantasy art director. Also illustrating.

I'm not entirely sure what I do but I collect a paycheck every month and I'm pretty sure it's not allowance, probably because my parents don't give allowance. Also I spend my days in a strangley lucid daze...
