If You'd Been Born 50 Years Earlier, Where Would You Have Worked?

On Fridays, I post a series of unrelated questions meant to spark conversation in the comments. Answer one, answer all, respond to someone else's reply, whatever you want. On to this week's topics of discussion...
1. If you'd been born 50 years earlier, what would you have done for work?
2. Stacy Conradt is working on her annual list of the most interesting, bizarre, or otherwise noteworthy college courses offered this fall. If you're in college, let us know if your school has anything that should make the cut. For everyone else, what's the weirdest class you ever took?
3. What's a pie flavor you think should be more popular? If you'd like to invent your own flavor for this question, have at it.
4. You know the deal with #4. Got a question for the group? Use this slot to ask it. Or if you have a question suggestion for me, fire it over via Twitter @EnglishJason. Enjoy the weekend!
