Career paths with languages that aren't teaching?

Asked by ilvorangeiceblocks (865points) June 7th, 2014

Being an undergraduate student, majoring in Latin and Italian, and resenting the entire idea of working in education, I really tire of people saying something alongs the lines of: “so you’re going to teach latin/italian when you leave university then, i suppose”. At this stage, I really only am studying the languages because I love language and linguistics, a proper career idea hasn’t really presented itself to me yet.
Would anyone like to give me ideas of career paths with languages that aren’t teaching, so I can not only undermine that oh, so, annoying and presumptuous comment but also perhaps move me into thinking about the future without and impending sense of dread?
