You could say "enough is enough!-- You aren't really afraid. You could kick him, even "over under" him with the reins. He'd say "You are distracting me from my calculations. The more you carry on, the longer my study will take."

When he was done, having satisfied himself of the water's safety, he'd walk through without another thought.

haha, that's just hilarious!
someone should do a spin off of "if your horse had a career, what would it be?"

Made me think of this. If my Racking horse, Renegade had a career, I think he would be a lawyer by day and a drag queen on stage by night. He is very flamboyant, but can hide it very well when it is time for business.

Rebel would be a construction worker on lunch break. Gets the job done, but likes the goodies that get packed in the lunch box.

What would your horse be?

[LSM1212]

Actor or Comedian for sure. He's a character and is always looking for an audience. :D

[horsepix76]

Super Model or Wonder Woman

- Gorgeous (if I do say so myself) 16.2 h dark bay TB mare with legs a mile long and a metabolism like none other. If she were human, she could eat pizza every day and still lose weight. She's very bold and brave, hence WW.

[JohnDeere]

Mine would be on (unearned) welfare. Or (unearned) disability. Hes that lazy.

And working under the table as a Swiss gigolo. Hes that handsome.

[Mozart]

Walmart greeter

[Vesper Sparrow]

My young one may need a career counsellor. He flunked out of racing and polo school and spent the winter as a security guard (haypile) and greeter. He's supposed to go to dressage school but keeps coming down with psychosomatic illnesses, mainly involving his feet (so that leaves out the military).

Any suggestions? He's

- very charming and affable
- highly intelligent
- has a very low physical pain threshold
- highly social


Right now, I'm thinking either financial advisor or therapist...

[KaraAD]

My big gorgeous Bavarian WB would be a con artist - he'd be totally hot, and he loves to sweet talk and pretend he's gonna be good and then watch out - If he was human, he would have all the rich ladies swooning at his smile and eating out of the palm of his hand, while he robbed them blind. But, none of them would ever report him - they would love him to much!

maitre d' :D Very high class establishment of course

[cloudyandcallie]

Cloudy would be a "kept man" having a woman to pay for everything for him.
Oh wait he already is.:lol:

If he really worked he'd be a movie star, a younger Sean Connery, with about the same amt. of hair. He'd have fast cars and young fillies.

[Simkie]

Is the position of The Princess in the The Princess and the Pea story available? Blush would ROCK at that.

[matryoshka]

Bank on Frank: retired sports star living off endorsements, developing a beer gut
Ajax: day care provider (loves the babies)
Diamond: crotchedy woman in a nursing home who gets into everybody's business
Annie: middle schooler, getting decent grades, bit of a rule bender
Roxy: model, hanging on the arm of a good looking hunk, preferably an athlete.

[BuddyRoo]

My mare Chey would be Aunt Esther--whacking her purse over the heads of youngsters and other would be ruffians and perpetual line steppers. Keeping order with a no nonsense "Don't MAKE me come OVER there" type dagger eyed look.

My diva girl? She'd be Whitney Houston or some such diva-ish one insisting that everything be just so and if you so much as look at her crosseyed her she'll bitch slap you into the next county.

[SarahandSam]

Walmart greeter

Hah--you beat me to it!

Actually, I think mine would be a professional eater--as in the guy who can eat fifty hot dogs in thirty seconds, etc. He's never met a potentially edible object he didn't like.

[stryder]

My sweet mare would be a ballerina - long, lean, flowing effortlessly and beautiful to watch. With a smile on her face while her toes blistered and bled.

She loves to work hard and is impervious to pain. She has high standards, and puts her ears back at horses that screw around or goof off.

[phoebetrainer]

One of my mares would be a female bouncer - barging through crowds to the source of the problems, bodies bouncing off her, she's completely unaware that she's bashed someone out of the way.

The little horse I'm begining in eventing at the moment would be one of those circus performers or stunt men who contort their bodies into amazing shapes or spaces. He can itch his spine with he teeth from behind his wither back to his loins. He's also been known to scratch the end of his dock with his teeth.

One of my young ones would be the geeky kid at school who hangs out on the edge of the cool kids, always hoping that he's really one of them.

[tradewind]

One of mine would be a research scientist, he never stops tryingto figure out how stuff works, and never gives up no matter how many failures...and is brilliant to a fault.

[Vesper Sparrow]

maitre d' :D Very high class establishment of course

That's perfect for him, Donkey! He definitely has an interest in all things oral...

How about Cinnamon?

[Mozart]

Hah--you beat me to it!

I think our horses would be best buds...

Prehaps a gossip/red carpet reporter since she must stop and talk with everyone!

[Vesper Sparrow]

Prehaps a gossip/red carpet reporter since she must stop and talk with everyone!


I can just picture Miss Cinnamon on Access Hollywood, dressed in a stunning orange suit to match her flaming red hair!

[Horse with No Name]

My TB mare would be a high maintenance lunch-alot wife who would be off at the first whiff of any financial constraints! :lol:

[tkhawk]

My mare is a diva and sometimes I think if she were a human she would make a lovely drag queen!!:lol:

My gelding-he is getting real chilled out now. Just a surfer dude-Dude whatever type!!

[Vesper Sparrow]

Andy, my aging mare, would be a librarian or a strict schoolteacher: enforcing the rules, giving kids blistering looks when they acted up, and hiding in the back of the stacks when she was in a bad mood and didn't want to talk to anyone. She can be very prissy. But she would be very kind to the very youngest kids and would always be ready to read them a story.

[SarahandSam]

I think our horses would be best buds...

LOL!

[TankMonte]

Old Mare: the ornery old cat lady down the street.

Dumb Gelding: involved in a pyramid marketing scheme.

[asanders]

OTTB: IT network support supervisor (you know that guy that cultivates the fact that nobody knows whether he does nothing, or if the company would grind to a halt without him). And he'd spend all his free time as an on-line gamer, or geo-caching when he had to have some excercise.

Pony: H.S. guidance counselor, his open door policy would alternately provide a shoulder to cry on and scare the snot out of the students.

[DressageGeek "Ribbon Ho"]

Ted would be a gigolo.

[Buffyblue]

Buffy would be a Formula One race car driver.

[GrayTbred]

He would sell propane and propane accessories

http://www.donklephant.com/wp-content/HankHill.jpg

[SBT]

My OTTB: High school basketball coach! :lol:

Obnoxious but lovable washed-up athlete (ligament injury ruined a promising NCAA career) who still works out and practices as if the NBA might someday recruit a middle-aged 5'10" defenseman. Loves to coach, kids love him, cheerleaders ogle him because he's SO HOT for a 40-something dude. Other coaches kind of hate him for his popularity, and talk amongst themselves about his actual skill level being not that great. His team does lose more than they win, but if you ask him, every year is going to be "THE" year! He owns a bachelor pad full of empty beer cans and pizza boxes, drives a decidedly un-cool compact car, and goes everywhere in his athletic wear. Shops only at Dick's. Sometimes wonders why he can't get a date his own age, but is perfectly happy spending his evenings drawing up new plays while sacked out on the sofa with his cat.

(Obviously I have thought about this before, LOL! :lol: )

[Chall]

TB - a gentleman of leisure, smoking jacket, white scarf, calling cards. He is absolutely the most social horse (with other horses) I know. He gets along with everyone, don't know how he does it. And since he's been retired un-rideable for 15 or so years the leisure part fits.
Arab gelding- Security enforcement with a soft touch for kids. No nonsense, never takes off with the herd. Thinks for himself, trusts nothing,doesn't believe a word you say. But goes ga-ga over foals.

[The Brainless Horseman]

food taster for McDonalds, Burger King, and Wendys

[Noctis]

Shiver: A stoner :) Who also dabbles in astrophysics. Darn filly is SO laid back and chilled, but let her stare at something or show her once and she's got it and probably taken it a step further! (Note...don't let her watch the darn stall latches. Ugh)

[LookinSouth]

My 17 year old TBX gelding would be a DEP state park ranger :winkgrin: He loooovvveess exploring the woods and heading out on the trails. He can determine the safest and least trappy path of travel himself and has no prob bulldozing through saplings and brush to create new trails. He even likes to help move loose branches and brush.

He loves to test all the water holes for palatability and teach all the wimpy city horses how to be a real "woodsy" horse.

[shea'smom]

Matilda, 29 year old nanny to my yearling, she is the grandmother who tells the kids " I am going to snatch you baldheaded!", but in reality lets the baby walk all over her.
Lina - is the Queen of England taken?
Walker - Obi wan Kenobi

[Against all Odds]

my guy would definetly have to be a quarterback. he's got the whole "i'm perfect and can do anything" personality down pat, and when he's good he knows it :P

my other one would definetely be a teacher. when I do something right he's perfect, but if I don't do things quite his way then I better figure out the right way or it's not getting done :P (he's a been there done that jumper so he's generally teaching me the right way of doing things when I screw up :P)

I want one like this!

[Jetiki]

Midget (mini mare)-- sports coach, she's tireless almost energizer bunny proportions, brave, bold and ready to go.

Lucky mini stallion -- definitely the athlete look at me one of the group

Wind mini stallion -- supervisor, would rather watch it all from a distance than actually do it.

Peanut mini gelding -- spends more time trying to get out of work than actually working

Hope POA x Arab --that pesky secretary that won't stop talking but has to have something to do all the time.


Karen

[seeuatx]

G would be an Interior Designer. His stall and everything else have to be Just So. He spends many hours making sure his poop is buried to exact specifications, his hay MUST be in the corner by the window or it is not worth eating, salt block MUST be an equal distance between feed and water buckets so that he can alternate during meals, and the middle must have a perfect imprint for him to lay in. He hates that the stall cleaner levels his stall everyday, he comes in from the field and must work to get his "spot" back to perfect.

[otisrider]

Is dumb blond a job (no offense to the blonds on the board)?

[TooManyChickens]

26 year old Quarter Horse: The still mobile senior citizen who drives a dodge dynasty and goes into assisted living centers to talk to the folks that have no one to talk to.

3 year old chestnut WB filly: Something out of 'mean girls'. The high school chick that all the boys wanted to date, made fun of substitute teachers, and picked on all the 'not so populars'. Has a gang following that secretly hate her.

4 year old very laid back OTTB gelding: The security guard that is WAY too chicken to have the job.

[redhorse5]

Grey Holsteiner - One of those silent partners in some business that seems to have no product.

Danish Warmblood - Replacing the canary that signals the onset of a deadly gas.

Friesian - Apprentice shoe shine guy that never quite picks up on the process.

Danish Warmblood (Age 33) - Observer at international peace talks

Perch/TB - Bouncer

Welsh Pony - Head mistress at snotty girl's school.

[LookinSouth]

I want one like this!


I dunno, the testing of every single large puddle and stream along the way on a trail ride can get rather tiresome. :lol:

But today he was champ when I had to drag a large fallen branch from off the path of the trail. I just reached down, grabbed onto it and he walked forward onto the side of the trail with me dragging the giant branch alongside him with not so much of a flinch.

[Jaideux]

Pony 1: (smallish, effeminate seal brown TB with a heart of gold) What jobs do gay guys, who are popular with the straight guys AND the ladies!, have? He's pretty damn responsible and likes rules, so he'd probably be a financial analyst/investor (the good kind, not the Madoff kind). He'd look good in a trendy euro-cut suit, and definitely enjoys getting all gussied up. And he could definitely pull off the Statement Eyeglasses! :)

Pony 2: (large, jockish grey TB who is always mistaken for a warmblood) He would be working security for like a large university/corporation with plans to take the police exam in the next year or two, after getting some "growing up" time and experience. He is big and bold, and believes in the "Mack Truck Theory", which is "I'm bigger than you, and I have no plans of stopping, so YOU move!", but is also unflappable and athletic, which is necessary when dealing with naughty people doing naughty things. Unfortunately, on his "off time" he is the one perpetuating the (mostly innocent) naughty things! Hence, his need for some "grow up" time.

[sam1979]

Snotty, spoiled teenager... complains, acts out, acts like she doesn't know me around her friends, ignores me unless she wants something -- food! But in the end sees the light- mom is right.:lol:

[scpezold]

Esprit-25yo TB mare: Horny School Marm. I would have only said School Marm but the other day I watched her squat and pee when she was flirting with my 2 yo colt in the barn aisle. She was after him too, little hornball:rolleyes:
In her younger life she would have sold herself on the streets. Hell, she probably would have done it for free.

Blue-12yo TB gelding: The 40 year old virgin. (So I guess he works at Best Buy). He really just doesn't get it. And he is so damn needy.

Taggert-2.5yo TB colt: He is to young to have a job but he would probably be teachers pet. I could also see him having a paper route before school.

[vacation1]

Oh, I miss my schoolie. He'd be a Teamster. Joe Lunchpail, working for the man and looking forward to his dinner.

[TheOrangeOne]

My horse IS T.O. the dallas cowboys fotball player. He thinks very very ighly of himself, and he's a total pain in the rear primadona. God forbid he not recive the amount of fussing over he thinks he deserves. Now, I don't know how the football player is doing, but the horse version is worth it.

[Beverley]

The gelding...a politician. Possibly governor of Illinois.

The mare...a librarian by day. A stripper at night.

[giomark]

Mine is also a scientist..Please visit my blog here: Giolicious Blog (http://www.giolicious.com/)

Hey, that's my TB gelding!! :)

I have a TB mare that we have always referred to as "Julie, the Cruise Director." About once an hour when everyone is out peacefully grazing, she'll suddenly announce, "Okay folks, time for laps around the field!" and force even the lazy ones to join in. She has also taken it upon herself to hang out with the retirees and make sure that the youngsters don't bug them.

[nuts4cowboybutts]

Zack would be a locksmith. He can open any lock, latch, sliding bolt and untie any knot. Maybe a locksmith. Maybe Houdini?

Star would be a high school cheerleader - bouncy, giggly, rah-rah kind of gal. Always cheerful and eager to put on a show.

Fine is Queen of All She Surveys. Be humble and avert your eyes when the Queen arrives.

Buck, the stallion, would be a sex therapist.

[dghunter]

Irish: wonderful professor with no patience for any extra noise (he kicks during storms and any loud noises lol). But he would be a wonderful professor, probably of history or English, who is getting a bit crabby as he gets older lol.

Kore: still in HS, barely gets by but excels at one subject (probably science), very good looking without having to do anything for it. Everyone likes him but he doesn't like many people. He'll probably try to live on unemployment one day.

My friend's horse Noah: *THE* troublemaker at school (he kicks the door, dumps his water bucket in his stall, jumps out of the pasture, tries to get loose, etc...) but very, very smart when he applies himself :yes:

[Beasmom]

Gallito (rest his soul) would have been Richard Simmons. Constantly egging the rest of the horses into a gallop.

Bea is a Beauty Queen. Beauty Queens don't HAVE jobs.

Figaro is a charming "Kept Man".

[anna's girl]

My mare would be a genteel but slightly haughty, very high end salesperson.
Or in the spring/summer high class courtesan.

[Sassenach]

*The Quietman: Would be a romance novel cover model - he's got the hair for it! (see profile pic) :lol::lol:

[pintopiaffe]

ooooohhhhhhhhhhhhh.... I can't wait to read all three pages of this so far--but I am witholding myself until I can suss out my guys. I wouldn't want to be influenced...

Lesseee...

Danny, of course, would be a foster Mum. Not only in the literal sense, with all the approved paperwork from the State, including for Special Needs and "emergency placement" kids, but also in the figurative sense, taking in all the strays and lost and lonely and forlorn... she just LOVES very well.

Sky is going to be a computer programmer. Right now she's a very talented young hacker. It is entertaining, and uses up her mental energy. She will, eventually, I'm sure, use her powers for Good and work for the Gummint and do security and such. For now, she's having WAY too much fun figuring her way around simple, stupid programs that mere mortals think are "good."

The Young Master Irrenaeus is a weathercaster. Not a meteorologist--mind you--but the most favorite, best, (and really, face it, most accurate) weathercaster in this small-but-competitive three-station market. :lol: And yes, he *does* like girls. Really. Not that there's anything wrong with that. He just can't help it if he's pretty. <pout, flounce>

Himself. Hm. I truly have to think on that. I think, perhaps, he is a Diplomat. He *wanted* to be a spy, but is a bit too scared of... well, face it... getting hurt. You know, messy things like being shot, stabbed, arrested in a foreign country with less than sanitary correctional facilities... whatever. <shrugs> So instead he is a Diplomat, with just a wee bit of 'listening to the chatter' here and there... a word to or from the right person... the right place at the right time... Most always in black tie and tails of course, and never without impeccable company... One would never *expect* his heart and courage in the face of true adversity... though one would of course, NEVER QUESTION his Inegrity nor Loyalty... so it isn't such a leap, afterall, once one really thinks it through...

The rest are just kids still. Well, Watchipi isn't, but even though she's pregnant herself, she works with the abused kids and runaways and such. She has a story, herself, but doesn't just *volunteer* it. Instead, the kids just *know* she "gets it." Ya know?

Tate thought she wanted to go to Beauty School, but now realizes she CAN be brave and strong... and quite inspired by her Da (well, and sibs too) and is probably going to shock just about everyone (except her Da) when she enlists to the Navy and scores so well on her aptitude tests that she is actually allowed to pick her field... she'll pick Cryptography. ;)

Lugh is just in Jr. High He fluxes between intimidated and inspired by his half-sibs and his Da. His Mum was such an ICON that sometimes it's hard to live up to. (Gosh, he misses her too. :sadsmile: and knows his Grandpa is a legendary immigrant) He TRIES. Deep in his heart, he knows he has so much legacy to fulfill He's a little too shy (and face it, a little too pretty, like his half-bro, Irrenaeus) to be on Varsity Sports. He's not *quite* up to starring roles in the play, (though secretly, he does long for the lead of Oliver in Oliver Twist ) so instead he is the absolutely indespensible Stage Manager/Prop Master/lighting & sound director for the play. He is the unsung hero, everyone, *everyone* knows he works harder than anyone else... but he doesn't get the applause or the bows... that's ok though. right now he's geeky with pimples and scrawny for his age... he was a late birthday but smart--so he's actually a year ahead of where he *should* have been in school calendar wise. By College he'll catch up. Luckily he won't ever quite 'get' just how handsome, stacked, smart and talented he is. He will be That Much More Attractive for his simple humilty. Hard to say yet what he'll major in... pretty much anything he puts his mind to.

;)

[pintopiaffe]

Ted would be a gigolo.

It's good work, you know, if you can get it.

:uhoh:

Some of these answers are just FABULOUS. What a hoot. I love that you can just HEAR the affection in them... (and not a wee bit of humour... not a bit... ;) )

[Chall]

Yes,I'm cracking up over this thread. Keep it coming. The IT guy one, ROFL.

[amastrike]

This is tricky...

My 8 year old crippled TB would be... definitely a male model, but one who pretty much just does head shots.

My 22 year old TB is a real sweetheart... I see him in some sort of hard manual work.. construction or something. But he'd be the one who does not whistle or make catcalls at women as the pass by, he just politely says hello if they acknowledge him.

[WB Mom]

Interior Designer for sure. His stall reflects this as he strategically places everything in there... :winkgrin:
The stall cleaners LOVE him!

[CowgirlDressage]

Max would be a surfer fer shur dude! :cool: LOL, seriously, that's what I think. He is mister mellow, but loves to do his thing. Something weird flashes past he just gives it a look and continues along on his way. Gotta love muh boy! We got sucked down into a bog coming out of the creek, as in stepped into it and wham, clear to my ankles in a flash (and he's 16hh), and I of course freak as I can hear the thing sucking at us pretty hard.

Max rocks back and forth, back and forth, my DH is calmly telling me it's going to be okay, my youngest DD is crying her poor heart out, I'm trying to breathe past my heart lodged firmly in my throat...and Max lunges up as hard as he can, thrusts up and lands us on terra firma. I sob into his mane and tell him he's the man and how much I loff him forever.

He's fine, no injuries, not even soft tissue. I have a grapefruit sized hematoma on my belly from hitting the pommel when he lunged up on the way out of that bog, but I don't care. I just keep checking my boy and asking the vet if he's sure Max is fine. He is calmly munching hay and flicking his eyes at me, trying to figure out what the heck is wrong with me :lol:

As for Anna, I think Anna would be an actress, one of the old school ones that were amazing. Think Audrey Hepburn. Classy, sophisticated, but not afraid to get the job done, and can make you laugh, cry, etc. Yup.

[5]

Old mare- Tutor for slow students.
Young mare- Some job where she looks like she is working but in reality isn't doing a thing.

[FancyFree]

Young mare- Some job where she looks like she is working but in reality isn't doing a thing.

:lol:


Ballerina/Roller Derby Queen, depending on the day.

[aurorag16]

Luke-A horse I used to work with, would have been a really popular jock. The one who picks on everyone less popular than him, and gives swirlies to the freshman. His is a below average student, but only because school is too easy for him, and when a teacher really takes interest, he shines. He probably would study something really complex like quantum physics (or whatever, its all beyond my merely human mind), but only at night under his covers in secret. He would also be secretly in love with the unpopular plain girl, but would never let anyone but her know.

[CHS]

1 mare would be a perpetual student
2 mares would be welfare recipients
Hmmm stallion would be a stock broker
Other mare...Librarian?

[Blacktree]

Yeager - International Playboy - is that a career? He'd travel the world on private jets and get away w/ being a total player because of his accent and irresistible smile...

Fraju - He'd be the retired olympic track star that now has some paranoid/schizophrenic issues and constantly obsesses over conspiracy theories. (Can you tell this is a TB?)

Wicca - She'd be a chef. She'd be a bit round herself from always trying her creations. She'd LOVE her job.

Odin - He'd be that brilliant 20 year old working for the Geek Squad or something bc he's good at that kind of stuff naturally, but he's not quite ready to take on college like his parents want him to yet to start a real career.

Freya - She'd probably be in college, getting her masters in education. She wants to be a teacher - she's good with kids and has that gentle, balanced nature that they respond well to. She likes coming up with lesson plans.

Yukon - He's that gangly teenage boy that is trying to hang out with the 'cool kids' in high school. He doesn't quite fit with that crowd, but they let him in anyway, because he's entertaining.

[CDE Driver]

Oh my gosh! These are great, I also love the humor and affection.

Harras, 14 year old Sacshen. A Navy Seal with a little MacGuyver thrown in. He is the most serious and workmanlike guy, but incredible kind and generous. My best friend.

Apollo, 8 year old Hanoverian. When I asked my DH the question the first thing that popped out of his mouth was "5 Star Hotel Doorman", that pretty much nails it! :) But I do think he would moonlite as a Navy Seal, as long as no one knew he was that talented! He is my baby boy.

[MyGiantPony]

Tally would be the octomom. :lol:

She LOFFS babies. Tries to steal other mares' babies. Makes googlie eyes at minis because she thinks they're babies.

OK, so octomom isn't really a job...she'd be an au pair.

[Mtn trails]

Woodrow my 23 year old QH X would be a heavy equipment operator. Used to be quite buff in his day but as late is developing a paunch. Still whistles at the ladies and is a sucker for a blonde.

Zephyr, the 5 year old mustang would be a biker chick, absolutely all the way, with a black leather jacket and a chopped out Harley. :D

Zoomie, the TB is one of those NYC girls who is a model by day and on weekends has a house on Fire Island that she shares with other models who spend all of their time laying on the beach and making sure they are the coolest.

Sierra the Kentucky Mtn Saddle Horse is the bitchy customer service lady at the DMV. Fill out this form. NEXT!

Carly, other KMSH is the blonde bombshell and the apple of Woodrow's eye (see above). However, also the town floozie who is ready to show the boys a good time. wink wink.

[Blacktree]

Tally would be the octomom
:lol::lol::lol::lol:


Harras, 14 year old Sacshen. A Navy Seal with a little MacGuyver thrown in.


These are hilarious you guys! I can totally see it... :)

[00Jumper]

Lola, 8 yo DWB - Lola would be a politician, no doubt. Everything is a bargain (okay, I do feel your leg but I'm only going to extend my trot if I know you mean it - say, I can shoulder-in instead, that would be a little easier, what do you think of that?), she pretty but not model-gorgeous, talented and way too smart and conniving for her own good. The horse plots I swear to God. And she likes to experiment. On second thought, maybe she is a mad scientist or supervillain . . . :winkgrin::lol:

Excel, 6 yo TrakxTB - Cellar would probably be a hairdresser. She likes to check out what you look like, she HATES hats (she'll take them off and play with your hair), she is very very social and she's good at her job. :winkgrin:

Willow, 10 yo TB - An over-enthusiastic coach for a middle school sports team. :lol: Not hugely talented herself, but with enough enthusiasm and love of the job to make up for it! And a great teacher. :D

Jackie, 21 yo TB - Definitely a nanny or old schoolteacher! She likes to look out for the little ones, is patient but quietly dominant, and knows what she wants from everyone. ;)

[equineartworks]

A social worker and physical therapist :)

[Violetta]

22 yr old Welsh Section D: He tried being a taxi driver, but that didn't work out. Then he tried teaching, but found it boring, so to pass the time he'd amuse himself by playing practical jokes on the kids (they were funny, honest:D) But he has a soft spot for those with less confidence. Now he's a mentor, working part time. He's not entirely sure how he landed himself this job, and is somewhat bemused by it. In his spare time he studies Welsh poetry.

3 1/2 yr old TB/Welsh: Still at school, considering what to do at University. Willing to consider most things, but possibly health care professional? Big sister type, caring but won't take any nonsence. Think she'll be quite diverse, so maybe language teacher. Likes hiking and mountain biking at weekends. Conversely she can be very dreamy and often has her head hidden in a romantic novel.

Violetta, your post is reminiscent of personal ads --

Tall red headed German from Hannover, recent immigrant, seeks companion to share romantic German poetry, quiet walks, Beethoven, apples, sunsets. Must like cats. Age, income, occupation, looks not important.

Petite, extremely attractive 13 year-old mare seeks wealthy new owner. I do not look a day over 4. You should be willing and able to support me in extravagant style and expect nothing in return. I am exquisite arm candy and expect to be treated as such. Submit your resume and last year's tax return for consideration.

That is great!

Mattress Tester..Mine sleeps 20 hours a day if allowed.

Naomi Campbell - Model and Business Tycoon combination. Too gorgeous, too smart and too controlling. Mix it in with the odd fit of cuckoo rage when someone ticked her off and there you have it.

And don't you dare tell her to walk through the puddle vs around....oh the rage!

[MidlifeCrisis]

Cowboy or bronc rider. Strong, muscular, outdoorsy, and quiet type. Does his job and doesn't make a big deal about it. Just kind of walks off after a job well done. A pat on the back is reward enough.

[Jealoushe]

Pony - Gigilo

Horse - Underwear model

[AppendixQHLover]

My boy would be a southern gentleman farmer. He knows how to do the job but would rather pay someone else to do it. He is very good at doing his job and has done it before. He is polite to the ladies. He will defend his honor when crossed without violence. He is a momma's boy also.

Lol! That's true! Maybe they're looking for a new human:eek:

[2DogsFarm]

OK, laughing myself silly reading all these gave me time to think up jobs for my 2 boys.

Vern - 27yo TB - Chief of Medicine at a teaching hospital.
Brilliant sociopath, displays a withering disdain for underlings (me) although he is only trying to make them better.

Cash - 15yo TWH - Juvenile Parole Officer. Had a rough time growing up (5 owners in 6 years) so he can empathize with the kids sent to him.

[KitKat987]

Scout - Mad Scientist. Can always be found working on multiple projects at once, many of which blow up in his face, no attention span whatsoever, always running around being crazy, brain rarely shuts down, doesn't know the meaning of relaxation. Wild, bad hairdo at any given time.

Buddy - Freelance Writer, works when he feels like it, lounges around napping half the day but gets a fit of energy when something inspiring comes along.

[knitgirl]

9 yo TB: air traffic controller or pilot. This guy doesn't pay attention to what else is going on, just concentrates on his job. Will maybe flick an ear back if someone gets in his space. He'd have that very reassuring low voice.

[basil's mom]

I need more time to think of one for my horse but, my mini-donkey would be a mall cop that took his job way to seriously and in his spare time he would pose as an expert on chat rooms even though he had no idea what he was talking about.

[JUMPERROUND]

I love this!!
My gelding would be a Rockette, he has the longest legs and doesn't really like to stand still or be alone.
My mare has a job already, she is Greta Garbo, reborn into a equine life. She is beautiful, european, and wants to be alone.
My retiree is a dwarf tosser. And his equally retired step sister is a police officer.

[Dapple Dawn Farm]

My guy, a high school science teacher. A bit "geeky", he would wear a pocket protector if they made them for horses. He does wear a white Bossy Bib which looks like he's wearing a lab coat. He's very into details and extremely inquisitive, he inspects everything he comes across. And by the way, I teach high school science so it takes one to know one :D

[sid]

Argosy would be a Chippendale dancer.
Boleem would be do professional ballet.
KC would be a computer geek or engineer.

[kb]

Mine would have no real job at all but somehow manages to get everything he wants... kind of like Jack from Will & Grace.

[Woodland]

Shane would be an underwear model. :cool:

[DressageGeek "Ribbon Ho"]

Scout - Mad Scientist. Can always be found working on multiple projects at once, many of which blow up in his face, no attention span whatsoever, always running around being crazy, brain rarely shuts down, doesn't know the meaning of relaxation. Wild, bad hairdo at any given time.



WAIT!!! you're describing ME!!!!!!! Except they don't blow up in my face, thank goodness. But everything else is spot on!!

[KitKat987]

:lol: Sounds like you and Scout would get along well, but probably never actually get anything accomplished :winkgrin:

[SBT]

Except they don't blow up in my face, thank goodness.

No, you just might get flies with hazel eyes instead of green if you're not paying attention. :cool: :D

[Fixerupper]

Mine - robbing 7/11's

[EqTrainer]

My personal horse would be a very rude stand-up comic.

[MoonWitch]

Jake would be a Mall Cop - thinks he big & bad but all the kids laugh at him behind his back and play tricks on him! :lol:

[chestnutmarebeware]

Rosie (aka The Chestnut Mare) = one of the extremely hot super-villainesses from the 50s–60s comic books—the kind that wear a black leather unitard with stilettos and go around kicking everyone's butt just because she can!

Cat on the Moon = Tall, elegant, leggy trophy wife who's probably sleeping with the poolboy on the side. Extremely high-maintenance!

Bo's Typhoon = the plain girl next door who's one step away from getting a makeover and snagging the hottest boy in school, then going on the be a successful artist (like that horrible Freddie Prinz Jr. movie :lol:)

Ally = The retired teacher who was once beloved by all her students, but now chases kids out of her year with the garden hose!

[Sandy M]

LOL~~~ He's a 4.5 year old with ADHD - the equivalent of a human tweener/teenager - he'd either be NOT working, or working at McDonalds!

My old boy (retired) age 23.5 - Ah...such a sweetie...he'd probably be a Professor Emeritus in Equestrian Studies with an emphasis on "getting along with your human," but with quite a sense of humor (since he's an Appy).

[OffTheHook]

You guys are hilarious! I just joined because I couldn't resist posting on this thread!

My horse, Rayn, is like a college student but in this sixth or seventh year of undergrad because he's too lazy to put in any effort into his studies and still hasn't obtained enough credits to graduate. Plus, he loves the lifestyle. His likes in order of increasing importance are:

1) partying with his best buds,
2) slacking off,
3) food,
4) chasing women. he loves the ladies!

[Queen Latisha]

My horse would be a food critic, all he wants to do is eat!:D

[crewgirl34]

My 9 yr old TB mare: Stay at home Helicopter Mom. She's the weanling babysitter, and she takes her job seriously. Once the weanling left the hay pile to go get a drink. She realized he was gone, and she had a full on panic attack. Ran around screaming and didn't stop until he came back. He then got thoroughly sniffed out and if she could talk I know she'd be saying, "OMG, where were you? You know you're not suppose to leave without permission! A stranger could come around and kidnap you, or give you an apple with a razor blade in it. You have to be careful, and that means never, ever, EVER leaving my side."

The weanling: Middle school student. Obnoxious, instigates food fights, enjoys acting up and being a brat whenever there is a substitute teacher, but is a pretty good student for his regular teachers. Loves giving his babysitter heart attacks.
