I don't want to be a careers adviser.......

I don't want to be a careers adviser if I am supposed to curb people's individuality and any innovative ideas they might have. If someone came to me and said they wanted to join the Hong Kong Police, for example, I would say "Do whatever floats your boat!" So am I a post-modernist thinker? I believe we are all different, and should be free to choose what we do in life. One of my grandfathers came from a family of farmers and gave up his right to owning a farm because he wanted to work in a bank. He became a bank manager, which I think proves my point. I have just realised that the word "freedom" keeps coming up.
