[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I used to be a reporter and found it very intellectually stimulating. I told people I got to be professionally curious for a living.

Sadly the job market is super unstable, which is stimulating in a much more unpleasant sort of way. I now find myself in a more boring, more stable field.[/quote]

I was just going to say this. I moved recently from a not very stable newspaper job to writing content for a nonprofit. It's not quite as interesting since it's a niche area, but I think still intellectually stimulating in a more narrow way.[/quote]

This is PP - and I actually moved to nonprofit writing, too. My job has its intellectually stimulating moments but overall is (honestly) pretty dull. Great hours, great org, fantastic cause, and hopefully stable job, though. Picking up some new skills, as well, which is always good (I hear!).

But yeah - being a reporter was super intellectually stimulating. It's hard to imagine a better job if you like going out and learning about things, talking to people about the things they are passionate about, then figuring out how to talk about those things in ways that other people will find engaging. I wrote mostly features, and I just loved that job so freaking much.
