This is Jules Asner. Oooooooh, Jules. Jules used to host “Wild On!” on E!, before Brooke Burke took over the show, followed by Tara Reid running the show into the ground (TARADISE!).
Anyway, the show consisted of Jules looking awesome and partying in the hottest party towns across the globe: Ibiza, Rio, Miami, Akron, and such and such. That was it. That was her job, for which she was no doubt handsomely compensated. I’m not sure there’s a better job in the universe than getting paid to go and have a great time on some production company’s tab. And so, with Jules in mind, we commence this week’s dream job draft.
Yes, we’re picking the fucking sweet jobs we wish we had, instead of soul-sucking career vortices we’re currently stuck in. These are the jobs occupied by the kind privileged fuckfaces who almost certainly don’t appreciate their positions the same way you or I might. LOOKING AT YOU, FILM CRITICS! Oh no, the Sundance Festival has been overrun with corporate interests! The horror! FUCK YOU. YOU GET TO HANG IN PARK CITY FOR A WEEK, SHITSHINGLES.
THE RULES: Choose a job. Must be an actual job. Let us also assume you are proficient enough at said job to be extremely successful at it, so that you can do it for as long as you wish. Two rounds. The order:
Drew
Punter
Flubby
Maj
Ufford
Ape
1. Drew – Rock Star
Duh. Easiest pick of the draft. HELLO, DONNINGTON! HOW DO YOU FUCKING FEEEEL TONIGHT?!
/60,000 people roar
That’s quite a nice feeling.
2. Punter – dead deer gonzo porn film director Vice President of the United States.
“All of the executive perks. None of the responsibiliity.”
Plus, you get your own private assassination squads! Nice. I need you to fly to Havana and assassinate this man POST HASTE!
3. Flubby – NBA 12th man
“decent cake and you rarely have to break a sweat”
Yes, but then wouldn’t backup QB really be the best benchwarmer gig?
4. Maj – NBA GM
“I like basketball.”
Ooooh! Oooh! MAJ SHOULD RUN THE BUCKS! NO ONE DENIES THIS!
5. Ufford – Acclaimed Travel Writer

“Travel. Write. Repeat.”
Ape says: “Travel writing is the sweetest plum in newspapers. Write about your vacation on the publication’s dime. No wonder every one wants to do it.”
Drew says: “It’s an even sweeter job at the magazine level. Read an issue of Gourmet magazine and you will be filled the white hot jealous rage of a thousand OJ Simpsons.”
6. Ape – College professor with tenure
“Mah workin’ days are over. As are my days of wearing pants or considering the opinions of others.”
/pictures Ape playing the African drum in the subway
7. Ape – Film Director
“That’s auteur to you.”
8. Ufford – FDNY firefighter
“Nice warm feeling of public service. (Ed. Note: That’s really worth something?) Brutally masochistic workouts that lend to camaraderie. Lots of time off. Good benefits. You can live in New York but aren’t surrounded by disaffected overeducated jackasses. Oh, and YOU PUT OUT FIRES FOR A LIVING.”
Yeah, but fire can be awfully hurty.
9. Maj – Master Brewer
“Pretty sure I don’t need any explanation as to why this would be fucking awesome.”
Coming soon: Stout Jack Stout, from Pretzel Boy Breweries.
10. Flubby – Assistant Manager
“Because no one ever asks to speak with the Assistant Manager.”
11. Punter – Professional golfer.
“But then what would I do on vacation?”
I assume engage in some kind of forcible entry.
12. Drew – Movie Star
Movie star AND rock star? I’m a double threat! Call me Drew-Lo.
Honorable mentions:
-Travel Show host
-Head of programming, NBC (you get to fire Lorne Michaels, Jay Leno, and Jimmy Fallon all in one swoop. FUCK AND YES)
-Host of Jeopardy (THIS IS DREWPARDY)
-Late night talk show host
-Host of anything, really
Yours in the comments. Kindly take one job at a time, then wait 10 picks before selecting again.


My Money is on Argentina Winning this year….I think Messi is really going to step up….He is the best player in the world…..and i know many people think other wise,and it would be interesting to who you folks think is the best player
Are you sick of really expensive prices on Power Tools? I was until I found an solution I want to pass on! If you are an serious Do It Yourselfer, you likely will agree that owning the correct tools for all jobs you do is so critical, however knowing where to get the best deals is not always to easy. But, there is a solution to purchase good tools inexpensively. Should you want to save a bundle, as much as 50% – 70% below suggested retail costs, you need to visit this website called http://reconditioned-powertools.com. The wholesale type prices for name brands like Dewalt, Porter-Cable, Fein, Makita and others will keep the wife happy!
Your content ammazed me alot. thanks for sharing information. online coupons
the voice-over guy. walk into a sound studio. get handed some copy. proof it for a couple of minutes. give the audio engineer the high sign to do a sound check (15 seconds, tops). roll tape for anywhere between 10-60 seconds talking about dipshit movies with a tone of voice that make it sound like your three year old’s been taken hostage. repeat drill for 2 hours. go home with (if i’m good, and this scenario assumes i am) $500-750K. wait a couple of weeks, or longer (depending on mood) and repeat.
alternative: starting goalkeeper on a top tier english premiere league football team. anybody can score a goal. it takes a special sumbitch to stop em, especially at that level. additionally, the pay and perks are considered par for the pitch – it’s not excess; it’s eccentricity.
either way, sign me up.
I am extremely late but I would love to be one of two things. First would be Paris Hilton, but the male version. I get paid money for just being myself and everybody either hates or loves me and everybody talks about me and quotes whatever I say as if what I say is brilliant. Second would be wrestling manager. You get to travel around the world, you dont have to be in great shape, and every once in a while you get to kick some wrestlers ass with a racket or a steel chair. Oh, and bang out some Divas. And of course I know I said two but being Stone Cold’s personal gofer. All the beer you can drink and you get to hang out with the baddest man on the planet. OH HELL YEAH!!!!
Backup QB is good, but 3rd string QB is great. If you’re the 2nd string and the starter gets injured, you are expected to come in and do a good job. If you’re third string, you have no expectations – people are just happy if you can take the snaps and hand it off without fumbling. And if you do even halfway decent, the whole city will love you and will be clamoring for you to start (which you won’t because you suck). And you still get to tell chicks you’re an NFL QB.
jeff reed
Assistant Crack Whore?
Wow, got here late and missed out on some good ones.
I’d take Test pilot. Strap me to something with giant engines and push the big red button, and have access to all kinds of crazy wool in SD/LA (obviously I’d be stationed at edwards)
An AIG employee, I can fuck up all I want and STILL get money in the end, what could be sweeter!
Hum? Well, here’s the thing I would like to be a Trust. Fund. Baby. For a real trust fund, like the Rockefeller’s not some crappy “poor” family. The thing is, the job is what you make it. Want to own a magazine, start one. Want to run a franchise into the ground? Buy it. Want to be president? Be Govenor, run the Rangers, let your dad run the CIA…Seriously, Sultan of Bruni is sick (I also believe he also used to own the only private residence in Regent’s Park in London (home of the London Zoo, Queen Mary’s Gardens, )) US Ambassador to the UK also gets his/her own place in the Park.
IF, however, I can pick a more realistic gig – I’d like to be a professional speechwriter? Like when your voice goes up at the end? Like you’re asking a question?
The job Andrew Zimmern has on the Travel Channel. He goes around the world and eats. That’s it. I want that.
Charismatic revolutionary leader. Most likely latin American Junta, or African militia. Get to fight the power, free your people, apoint yourself soveriegn, and go out in a blaze of glory when new upstart revolution liberates country by killing you.
Surprised this wasn’t there. Chairman of the IOC. Travel around the world with every head of state and ambassador kissing your ass, bring in shit-tons of money, either through your actual job or bribes…I’m there.
Tiger Woods caddy. Get a 10% cut of what he makes on tour, lug the bag and get to yell at any asshole with a camera. I get away from my family for several weeks a year but not too long, hang with Eldrick but not too much, have drinks with Daly occasionally.
Brew Master sounded good at first then I remembered they actually have to work all the time and often in crappy towns.
ufford picked firefighter because he is a big fan of those calendars. rawr
Small-town Chief of police. As long as it isn’t Amity.
+1 porky
\actually went to school in a small town called Amity
I always envied Dave Attell when he hosted Insomniac on Comedy Central. Go out when the sun goes down and get drunk, make fun of people, eat food, and sleep all day. Its like what i do now without the whole “getting paid” thing.
As a former retail slave, and assistant manager, I thank you for glorifying a completely unglorifyable job. I laughed heartily at it beating out Movie Star. Well done guys.
Video Game Designer. Or Reviewer. That’d be tits.
Damn, I missed out on a good draft.
Sports bar owner, like Chickie and Pete’s in Philly. I get all the beer and food I want, and I get mobbed with people who want to watch MMA or other in vogue sporting events while getting hammered on my slightly overpriced beer.
And since I’m so late, I’m doubling up and taking pro wrestling writer. I get to be in the business without the pressure of having a badass physique that I’d have to roid out to the gills for. I get to be a part of pro wrestling, not take any dangerous bumps and not die at age 35 from a steroid and painkiller induced heart attack. And as a bonus, when I fuck up, I blame it on the talent and they’re the ones that get fired. Brilliant!
Fashion photographer. Travel the world with hot chicks. Good coin. You can do it (and them) forever.
Many apologies if this has been taken. . . Sultan of Brunei. You’re the head of the state and no laws apply to you. You can marry multiple women, and still cheat on all of them with high quality pussy sex slaves (anyone remember the Miss USA, Miss Teen USA and I think Miss Britain sex scandal 10 years ago?), and anyone who lives on YOUR land. The sultan has a Boeing 747-400 furnished with gold plated furniture with an estimated value of $233 million including $3 million on furniture, six smaller planes and two helicopters.His official residence is the Istana Nurul Iman, with 1,788 rooms, 257 bathrooms, and a floor area of 2,152,782 square feet, undisputedly the world’s largest palace. Oh, the guy is so rich, he receives titles from other countries all the time, and has access to anything he wants. If this wasn’t already picked. . . Steal. . . of. . . the . . . draft.
Bunny (Livingstone) Wailer’s current job as a semi-retired legendary reggae musician.
He took his money and now lives on his farm in St. Anne’s Parish, Jamaica. He avoided the fates of the other two Wailers (Marley died of cancer, Tosh got murdered) and now grows and raises his own food- including, of course, herb and ‘shrooms. And he records and plays shows where and when the fuck he wants.
Someone took NFL analyst and Joe Lunardi, but fuck both of them. I want to be Mel Kiper Jr. I do next to no work, put college players’ names into lists, slick my motherfucking hair back, and everyone listens to every word I say like it’s gospel. Plus I’d get called a douche by the KSK guys.
Pharmaceutical Research Chemist. The money is good, the perks are better.
Will Leitch. That way I could tell Simmons to suck MY dick.
Quality Control for a Resort Chain…travel and make sure all the perks are perky enough
Placenta Juan, Afterbirth Tycoon.
I live in the land of RT (Russia Today) and you would not believe the shyte that they run on tv as “news” about the United States. It is ridiculous…and these idiots BELIEVE this shyte….as if it were gospel. I met one of the Brtis that is a reporter for them in a bar here and had to leave because I was moments away from spreading his carcass all over the floor because of the nonsense that was coming out of his face. I was way too far from the door and figured that I would make it into the ever gracious arms of the state security before I could cross the threshhold and be setting nfl combine worthy 40 times on the streets.
Doug Butabi
My brother would be Steve and together we would get into any nightclub we wanted to.
okay, so maybe I kind of stole from Porky1, but nobody else noted the reference
US Marshal. I’ve watched the show about those guys on A&E and that really has to be the easiest job in law enforcement. Those guys just track some dude down, spy on him for a few days, and then pop out when he least expects it thus limiting the chance of him shooting back. And it really sounds like a cool job to tell the ladies.
I’d want to be a sports talk radio host. Get to go to games for free. Never really have to write anything. Babble out of my ass about anything I want and still be more informed than anything that comes on “The Heard”! Screw your Cowheard!
NFL Head Coach of any team except the Patriots. Sure, I probably might get raped in the locker room (I am of the female persuasion), but at least it’ll be interesting.
Manager of the evidence room at any big city police department. Do you have any idea how much money and drugs disappear from those evidence rooms on a regular basis? I’ll be in charge of making some of it disappear into my pocket.
+1 for rick muscles. got called out in class for laughing.
porn producer, “how badly do you want to be in this film?” (unzips)
Owner of West Coast Customs. Get to manage the pimpification of sweet rides ans I have a show on Discovery that’s still hot even though MTV almost ruined the concept by switching to GAS.
YAYEE-YAYEEEE
Nipple Tweaker To the Stars.

Every photoshoot needs somebody to make sure things are properly aroused. I can’t imagine a better job than standing around all day, interacting with beautiful famous people, and when the time is right getting to feel them up.
I can’t believe it’s not taken yet: Race car driver.
Any major series, including but not limited to F1, Nascar, ALMS. Well, any major series except WRC (rally). Driving through a forest/cliffside road/countryside at full bore with a guy telling you how fast to go and when to turn? That’s fucking mental.
My second pick – Casting Director for a teen drama. Dozens of nubile young actresses stroll into your office every day, desperate for fame, and they’ll do anything (and I mean anything) to obtain it.
My dream job would be to own the Minnesota Vikings. Why? Because I’m a suicidal alcoholic who longs for Death’s Sweet Embrace. Employment with the Vikings would hasten that process.
A pimp the bitch works to make your money
how much does a jizz mopper make?
oh no Flubby, (re: number 10). The assistant manager has to report to the manager. which is worse than the customer. the three hundred pound, evangelical, racist manager.
@ Chin-Strap & Maj
That conversation reminds me of the Kids in the Hall – Bikini Inspector routine.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j10TmxrhW9k
The only job worse than that was when I was on the beaver patrol!
The Minnesota Vikings head coach so I could jump off of a tall building for the good of the team.
I wish I could go outside my body and become the person who gets to oil my thighs before I squat in the weight room.
I wish Dan Rooney health and prosperity in his autumn years, but as soon as he kicks the bucket, the Ambassadorship to Ireland is all mine, boyo. In the meantime, I’ll run an Irish distillery.
Professional House sitter for the uber rich. When the owners are in Taho or Whistler for the ski season, I’m on their privately owned tropical isle. Seasons change, so does my address. Sweet!
I know what my dream job is because I’ve already had something similar to it: Bar Manager at a beachside resort for singles.
I had a job once where I drove a snowmobile building fences all winter. Powertools + Snowmobiles? Plenty of time to play, good benefits. It was killer.
Professional Bass Fisherman.
I know its not as fun as drinking on a lake with my buddies, but a bad day at the “office” sure beats a bad day at my current job. And from what I understand, those hillbillies make decent money too.
@Aaron,
I done snatcched up “land baron” above, daggumit…. I believe that encompasses all forms of land ownin’, land tillin’ and land workin’.
Damn, it was taken. I’m going to go instead with Professional Landowner.
no one took professional wrestler? really?
WWEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLL… WELL IT’S THE BIG DAVE!!!!!
Mike Rowe. “Dirty Jobs” looks like fun and the voice-over work seems like easy money.
Salma Hayek’s manservant. If François-Henri Pinault fucks up, I’m in there like swimwear.
Philanthropist for me (I didn’t check if it was taken). Warm fuzzies and lots of monies!!
mailman
Then nobody would care when I went postal. See what I did there.
stunt dick for Peter North.
that pic of jules is a great start to sexy friday. consider this an official request for MORE JULES this afternoon.
@Maj:
Master Brewers work seven days a week and often have to taste under-brewed beer. Have you ever had to taste under-brewed beer? Have you ever had to do it seven days a week, once an hour?
It’s quite possibly the best sounding but worst job out there.
Katy Perry’s Bra.
Since I just missed NASCAR driver, I’ll go British soccer player because the WAGs are just as good.
this one is too easy
Professional S+M Dungeon master, get paid to fuck people up physically and mentally? solid
Oil Magnate
I get to be independently wealthy, light my cigars with $100 bills and declare on CNBC that “yes, it really feels great to be a billionaire.”
MUHAHAHAHAHA.
NASCAR driver. No thinking involved beyond “turn left”, hot southern chicks all over the place, and the kind of driving that would get you arrested in the real world makes me famous and rich.
Bill Gates son, for obvious reasons. Hey, if being a WAG is a job, so is this.
strip club DJ. “Gentlemen, please welcome the lovely Tracy to the stage..”"
/as tracy it putting clothes on beside you.
Mafia kingpin
Nice one TheStarterWife. Brav the fuck O. Not to mention great weed and women from round the world!
Professional surfer. Travel to some of the most exotic locations in the world just to find a wave? Fuck and yes.
I didn’t bother to see if anyone picked this, so fuckit: F1 test driver. People don’t know the testers like they know Schunacher or Hill, or Senna (if he were still alive). You get paid fat as fuck, get to drive the most advanced shit on the road, and no one bothers you when you go to the store for a case of cristal and a pound of weed. Nice.
a punter in the nfl. a good one that makes a lot of money like lechler would be preferable. it’s the least stressful and with the least chance of injury, but you still get to live the life of an nfl player.
professional blog commenter. oh wait, i already am
