My ideal job


If I ask myself which it´s my ideal job, immediately I think in ice cream tester. Regrettably this job it´s unrelated with the anthropology, so I will speak about some job related with my career.

Firstly, I cannot imagine myself as archeologist, because, besides I do not like their approach, I hate work in the earth or under the sun all day, and finish the day dirty. Or I will not try going of Santiago and losing me in southern villages, in investigating any tribe to be extinguished.

Actually, imagine my day getting up early in the morning, leave kids in the school and come to my office, where there will be a desk with a big cup of hot coffee waiting for me. This place will be very quiet and I will be able to concentrate on the work of the day.

I hope to work in some company or institution to let me develop the urban anthropology, like an environmental consultant or urban ministry, where should investigate what people want for their city. For example, to do research about incidence of malls in the life of the people in particular community.

My work it will contribute greatly to the construction plans of the city, because Santiago become an "intelligent city" where the buildings, parks and all public places be in the services of citizens and not of the cars invading the streets, or companies with their advertising posters.

I hope the anthropology contribute to the approach of architects, transportation engineers and planners because I think that they sometimes forget to working for people, and not everything is aesthetic and supposed modernity.
