Jobs I think HP characters would have irl

Adult edition

Moody: survival instructor, has a side blog where he explains why all conspiracy theories are correct at the same time, including how an alien took his eye off for research purposes

McGonagall: legendary biochemistry teacher in a prestigious university, all students love her and fear her (obvs), probably with a nobel price or something similar

Lupin: Literature teacher, the kind robin Williams would represent in a movie, with very peculiar takes on classical authors' sexualities (all the Tumblr takes on literature are part of his lessons, you know it's true)

Sirius: I thought s lot about this one, and social service worker? Because he'd love to work with kids but doesn't have the patience nor the attitude to be a teacher, he'd love to be able to protect kids from abusive households and the fact that he makes little money would 100% ashame his family, which he'd enjoy to no end

Tonks: tatoo artist def, shed become famous thanks to her amazing artworks and get a lot of body modifications herself. Also, she's sent a few lost 18 year olds Sirius' way in the past, when she thought they needed someone that cared more than a tattoo

Hagrid: same job, guarding a big ass forest and befriending the bears and the deers alike, no need to change anything imo

Snape: that highschool chemistry teacher that makes everyone hate the subject and has been reported for student abuse several times. I will take no criticism in this

Molly and Arthur: shed still be a stay-at-home mother, but she'd have a blog with recipes and DIYs for other momma's. He'd fix dishwashers or something like that for a living, but he'd also have a little workshop where he takes pieces that no longer work and put them together to invent things, most of them useless but interesting nonetheless

James: we don't have a lot of canon info on hum, but I'm going to say he inherits his dad's millionaire company. Which is quite fun because he'll often go to a pub with Sirius and Lupin and people will wonder wtf a dude in a 10K suit is doing chatting and laughing with two dudes that look like a coffee shop au, at best.

Lily: she's a important lawyer that mainly works "protect the little guy" cases but will sometimes take quite famous cases and beat the opponents ass in court like it's not big deal, then go back to her small office and use the money to keep rich assholes on their toes. No one quite believes who she's married to.

Dumbledore: he's publicly known as an author, a genius scientist with the mind if a genius that can jump from chemistry to astrophysics without breaking a sweat, and has also won literature prices for his novels. On the other hand, he's also (one of) the most influential persons in the country, having politicians, lawyers, businessman and many others in his pocket, as well as afraid of him
