What life goals have you given up over the years and why? When I was a young child I wanted to be a truck driver because I spoke to them on the CB all day that was my internet and had a lot of fun. It sounded like a cool career to me at the time but then I found out what their lives were really like. Then when I was a teen I wanted to be a cop. I volunteered thousands of hours to the local PD. Then LAPD said one line that made me think long and hard about it. "We have new positions opening every day" and I knew I would have to start with them unless I could get the local PD to sponsor me and I knew what that phrase really meant, so I fell back on tech which was just a fun hobby for me. I'm glad I gave up on those things. [Edit] Oh yeah, and when I was a child I wanted to be a Jedi. It wasn't until the prequels much later in life that I found out I was missing the midichlorian's.
