dream job


If I had to list my top 5 dream jobs, they would be:

1. Pug Whisperer
2. Professional Best Friend
3. Doughnut Taste Tester
4. OPI Nail Polish Namer
5. This guy's job


Man Shops Globe on the Sundance Channel chronicles the life of Keith Johnson, "buyer-at-large for the upscale retailer Anthropologie". He takes us along as he searches "In out-of-the-way antique shops, private dealerships and craft stalls" for "one-of-a-kind home furnishings and accessories that will reach consumers in Anthropologie outlets, or inspire the company's design and manufacturing team." That's right - he doesn't even place orders for the company, he only needs to buy inspirational pieces. That IS his job. And I am officially jealous.

For all of you who are just as mad at their high school career counselor as I am (seriously, where was this guy on career day?) we can now live the adventurous life vicariously through Keith. Check out some of his finds:
