    When I told my dad I was going to be a comedian, he just laughed at me.

    I want to die peacefully in my sleep, like my grandfather.. Not screaming and yelling like the passengers in his bus.

    I've always had mad ideas about jobs i'd love. My first idea was a lettuce grower. That was just the tip of the iceberg
    I've actually done that for a living. <laugh>
    ..........................................................................................................

    Then decided it was time to turn over a new leaf...

    One night, when he was little, I was tucking my son up in bed and he said "Dad tell me a story."
    I said "I have to get up early tomorrow to look for work."
    He said "C`mon dad, tell me a longer one."

    I recently tried teaching Finnish. Never really got started.

    My first job in Dubai didn't last very long either. Always got the hump, camel training.

    Life in Prague worked out much better though. Always had a nice juicy Czech to look forward to at the end of each month.

    Boom, boom.

    I was teaching foreign students and one said he was a Pole.

    I said, "Are you positive?"

    Now I'm currently unemployed <doh>

    Went for a job as a taxidermist. The wages were terrible so I told them to stuff it.

    I was once a Urologist but I kept taking the piss

    Then I was a Historian, but there wasn't any future in it.

    I tried my hand as a 1600 metres runner... But I felt like I was just going round in circles.
