You've been transported to a high fantasy medieval world but it turns out you still have your real life job or the closest equivalent of it.

What do you end up as?

[(Anonymous)]

I work at a cheapass non-profit, so I guess that makes me an impoverished peasant just like real life.

[philstar22]

A lawyer representing dwarves living in the cities of men or men living in the cities of elves. That would be way cool.

[(Anonymous)]

The village hag.

[(Anonymous)]

An assistant librarian/clerk/copyist of some sort. I currently work in a public library, but I'm not a librarian yet. In actual medieval Europe the closest job would probably be a monk in a scriptorium, except I'm female. Were there nuns or any other women who worked extensively with books? In a high fantasy setting, I don't suppose it matters.

[(Anonymous)]

I'd be dead. I'd be a nun who treated highly infectious diseased pilgrims. That is probably a death sentence in any medieaval-type setting.

[ketita]

I'd probably be some kind of proto-wizard or something. I do research and languages, those skills tend to be less common in high-fantasy medieval worlds.

[(Anonymous)]

What's the medieval equivalent of a NEET?

[rosehiptea]

I work with adults with developmental disabilities. I'm... not sure there's a non-offensive way to translate that to a high fantasy medieval world.

[(Anonymous)]

Apothecary? Or I'm burned at the stake for being a witch for suggesting cleanliness can help prevent invisible things from making you sick...

So I'd be a bard, I guess.

[(Anonymous)]

Documenting ancient ruins of the First and Second Ages. Checking for any magical artifacts in the way before the new road gets built. Deciphering ancient runes. Occasionally digging up dead people and reburying them somewhere else out of the way and hoping the remains don't magically re-animate during transport.

[bur]

I guess I'm still an accountant. Hopefully I could find out a way to turn that into mathematical necromancy.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm currently unemployed, unless you count writing, and my previous two jobs were a parish secretary (the parish couldn't afford to keep me) and tour guide/receptionist at a castle (temporary position). Parish secretary would probably stay close to the same, though how you'd translate tour guide/receptionist to a castle that's presumably still functional I'm not sure. Gatekeeper? One of those servants who loudly announces people at castle functions? Whose job in a medieval castle is close to meet'n'greeting people and showing them around?

That aside, mind you, that's probably an interesting career path in a medieval fantasy world. I got dismissed from the secular power of the castle and then the religious power of the church in quick succession, and wound up an unemployed scribbler living in an attic. I suspect the local law enforcement are a bit suspicious of me.

[greghousesgf]

I'm on disability. I'm so fucked.

[(Anonymous)]

Probably a nursemaid.

[(Anonymous)]

Serving tables in a local bar lol.

[el_regrs]

I guess I'd be the assistant to some dude who tinkers with magical machines.

I'm Mary Poppins, y'all!

[(Anonymous)]

With an umbrella and a Yaka arrow.

[diet_poison]

haha, I work in surgical pathology so I guess I'd be a surgeon's assistant or something since pathology didn't really exist. Which would make me more of a scrub tech equivalent, but still closest approximation. Unless you want to say I'd be a researcher's assistant but honestly that sounds pretty boring.

I hope I'd wind up somewhere where it occurs to people to wash their hands, but I think that was invented post-medieval era...

[ill_omened]

A Knight I think? There's no real equivalent to my direct job at the time surprisingly enough.

[soldatsasha]

I have no idea. Maybe something like a shipwright?

[(Anonymous)]

I am a scribe, or scribe' s assistant. Mostly though, I make copies of what the scribes wrote, for the archives.

[ari_griffin]

I am currently technically unemployed, but I make crafts and sell them. I also busk as a balloon twister. My last steady paying job was working in a public library.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm a network administrator, so I'm not sure what that translates into...? Maybe a court wizard? Maybe, if I'm leaning more on the information technology part, I'm a spymaster. Not sure.
