Air traffic controller.
Why give it to me: add a bit of excitement to air travel.
Why not give it to me: when I get stressed I may well add up all the flight numbers and... "Ooo shiney tail!" ;-P

I'd like to be a cop for the day. Not just any cop. I'd like to be dressed in a male Bobby's uniform and arrest all the troublemakers and sex trade workers that I see. That would be Heaven for me.

airplane pilot. because then i could zoom around in the air and do tricks- i should not get this job because i think i would get high and be irresponsible and i do not have 20/20 vision. oh or maybe a bungie jumper instructor or a skydiving instructor- nobody should give me this job because i have low blood pressure and the thin air probably would mean i black out fast. and just because sex workers always get picked on and it's controversial- them. also i would like to be part of the justice league of america for a day- nobody should give me this job because they do not exist in reality.

I’d also love to fly a plane or chopper, and I also lack perfect vision. In addition, I’m not fit or tall enough. Plus I can't fly lol!

It was a dream at one point to be an air traffic controller, but I realized it would be a bad fit since I can’t multitask, am very easily stressed and would have difficulty getting what the pilots are saying over the radio.

Most of all I’d love to work helping turtles, but for more than a day! The reasons I wouldn’t be able to is I’m in the wrong country and I’m neither a vet nor a biologist.

top tier racecar driver.

And for those with the pilot things, you dont need perfect vision to be a pilot. Most pilots wear glasses when flying.

Maybe a gangster or dictator. I think I'd like to feel what is like to be a bad person without having to deal with the consequences or guilt.

I'd like to be the guy that climbs out of a helicopter onto high-voltage transmission lines to do inspection. Who knows, maybe I'll do that someday!

You should fly something that actually let's you fly. The F-22 and most other modern fighters are a computer with a plane attached; the pilot is more of a monitor than a driver. Although it still takes incredible skill to pilot them when the computer isn't doing much, the amount of times you actually get to use those skills are kind of rare.

Then again, nobody said that you were bound by law or airspace while performing these jobs. :P
