My Da Vinci Code

I often wonder what it is that compels people to take the career path that they do, for many I'm sure it's just the want of money, but people that chose a job because they think that is THE job that I want to do for the rest of my life and come out with the most obscure choices do make me wonder. I'm sure it's probably just me, I find it very difficult to see from other peoples' point of view when it comes to how they live their lives.

I've always wanted the husband, the kids, the little house in the country where it's always sunny without from a cloud in the sky, apart from those days when everything is perfectly white and covered in snow - you know the type I mean? Yeah, the fantasy-never-going-to-happen type places. But in all honesty that's what I always have and probably always will aim for. And I can understand that people don't want kids or would prefer a wife to a husband - or even a house in the city. But I just can't understand when people don't want to aim for something better, even if you know you're never going to get it, when people don't even want to hope I find that odd. Maybe because that only leads to being let down? Maybe, actually probably, I'm just narrow-minded to other peoples' opinions.

I am completely off topic now. Those points I made previously are completely not what I was aiming to write for this blog. 

The reason I started this topic is infact because of my driving instructor. If anyone was ever less suited to the job it was him. These are the credentials I believe a driving instructor should have:

PATIENCE

knowledge of the road

a polite and calming nature

I cannot fault my driving instructors knowledge of the road. I commend him infact for how long he can talk and talk and talk about every available point on a roundabout when you can change gear. If you do not know the answer to that it is infact whenever it is safe funnily enough, if you feel the need to ask your driving instructor DON'T.

Patience and politness are something he does not have. If ever you were to think of a rude, grumpy old man, who hates all other road users, young people, cars and mainly ME it was him. When I first met him he came across as the cheerful Santa type old man that everyone loves - how wrong I was.

This is what got me thinking, Why has he chosen this job?? It is clearly beyond me why people would chose a job that is just not for them and stick with it.
