| Text of work or job-related dream reports from participants in the Demographic Survey 2012. Exact question: Have you ever dreamed about your job or a situation at work? |
I dreamt I needed to protect some of my students from a car jacker, and we attempted to duck into my car before the jacker noticed us so we could drive away. It was difficult to get my key into the lock, and once we were in the car, some of the windows were down, which made us still vulnerable. it was night time, and we were behind a building in its parking lot. the car jacker was wearing a loose fitting white tshirt and red sweats, he was bald, and i could see the street lights beaming off his head. i kept shushing my students so they wouldn't make noise that alerted the car jacker. |

i dreamt about my cat coming to lie down in front of me, so that i could pet him. i told him i missed him, and he looked very happily at me. he then walked away... i also dreamt my grandmother was in the kitchen cooking with me and several other family members. however, she kept saying she was her sister, not herself, although i knew it was her. i kept saying how much she reminded me of my grandmother, and how much i wish she was here for me to tell her i miss her. and the "sister" said, "she knows... but you will be ok. she is with you." the rest of the family kept coming in and out of the kitchen, helping with various things as it was around a holiday that we were preparing. the light was fairly abundant from the outside, and she was wearing either a blue shirt and gray pants, or all gray. |
