Finding it hard to go back to work after your summer vacation?

You're not alone. A recent online survey found 8 out of 10 people would gladly give up the 9-to-5 grind for a new career if they could. 

Here are the top 10 careers that visitors to the website FabJob say they would leave their current job for. (Wonder if the choices have anything to do with how people spent their summer...)

1.  Wedding Planner (is it just me, or have you been buying wedding presents all summer too?)

2.  Pop Star (must be all those American Idol viewers)

3.  Professional Golfer (so that's what you're doing all those days you call in sick)

4.  Travel Writer (get paid to go on permanent vacation)

5.  Personal Trainer (must be from seeing all those hard bodies – or not so hard bodies – at the beach)

6.  Interior Decorator (don't tell us you spent your summer inside!)

7.  Management Consultant (maybe all the time you've spent deep in thought over a few cold beers has given you some ideas about what you'd like to tell the boss)

8.  Celebrity Personal Assistant (hey, if you have to be somebody's assistant, why not make it a celebrity?)

9.  Romance Writer (all those hot romance novels you read during the summer got your creative juices flowing)

10.  Archaeologist (can you dig it?)
