career

My humble viewers and followers of my teachings, I seem to be advising you on things to do in your leisure time, and unless you make a career out of moaning like I have (which you won�t because I�ll get you for plagiarism) you need a profession so you can make your living.

Now being a ghost can hardly disadvantage you in this day and age. If anyone does turn you down for a job, just slap an anti-discrimination lawsuit on them. However, there are certain professions that do suit ghosties like me.

You can always become a school professor at Hogwarts like Professor Binns. Boring people, make boring ghosts, which in turn promote good characteristics of a school professor. As we all know, sleeping at the back of the room is far more interesting than the actual lesson.

Being a teacher does have its advantages, you can always instruct people to clone your beliefs in their minds by making up guides to life, such as I am. (Though again I would warn against it. Being persecuted by me would not be fun.)

Ghosts are also quite suited to becoming any form of leader. Be it of a nation, parliament or knitting club because we can instruct people whilst not actually doing any work ourselves. (Ha! Only joking!) No, I just mean that we have good organizational skills and look pretty sitting in a big chair!

Then there are the professions a ghost should NEVER undertake. NEVER lower yourself to doing any form of cleaning work. As mortals, we spend our lives cleaning up, why bother when you�re dead. Worse still, you could end up like Filch. Someone who spends their entire life with a cat because they have no friends and even their mummy disowns them.

Also, any work that requires you to actually do work like lifting or building is a big no-no. Having no substance makes it incredibly difficult.

One last note before I bid you adieu. A career you should never enter into is singing. Why you ask? Because I, Moaning Myrtle am going to launch a singing career and become world famous. And yes, I�ve copyrighted that as well. I�ll make a killing. Singing in the shower really does pay off.

Ciao Bellas,

Myrtle
