Melissa McCarthy. Octavia Spencer. Amy Poehler. Debra Messing. These beautiful women are some of the most incredibly talented and funny women in movies and television today… and they are all fabulous and over 40!

What is your dream job? What job would you like to try, if only for one day? Do you love your job, but wish you could do something else as well?
