What do you do for a living

[catchacab]

 

Gigolo? nope, I probably would only have 90 yr old women as clients.

I  a professional gadfly?  that would be fun.

IT guy? that could work.

Lawyer? No Comment, I don't want to be sued.

Therapist? Hopefully, I not that screwed up yet.

Minister? Praise the world.

Urban planner? I had nothing to do with the Delaware Valley.

CPA? I do have a calculator.

Tailor? I would probably prick my finger too many times.

Baker? I would eat the profits.

Salesman? If you can't dazzle them with brilliance then baffle them with________.

I am a Mechanic?  I fix things!

this time of year I probably have the least fun job - CPA.

I just pulled my head out of tax returns for this post

...tax returns, other dark places, same thing.

Is this Chris sniffing around for his monthly column topic?

The first four times I met Mark Reynolds he commented that no one in Riesentöter asks about what people do. So I didn't.

At the auto show last w/e, someone asked me what some of the other guys did for a living. My answer was "I do not know & I did not ask". He was shocked that the info was not common knowledge. Part of my RTR fun was hanging out with other p-car fans and leaving my work behind me for a few minutes.

My wife is from North Jersey and one of the 1st questions people ask me in N. NJ social settings is what do I do. Maybe that is why I've learned to "don't ask, don't tell"

To be honest, I really don't care what people do for a living, as it has little bearing what they are like as a person, or their background.

.. plus typically me telling people what I do for a living is a conversation killer,

I prefer to say that I create new things.

Well I suppose you could always say "Unfortunately I Work"

Or you could try my response.....

"I pretend to work. They pretend to pay me....."

Structural Engineer/Project Manager - one of the few I know with a sense of humor, or so I'm told.....

Now be realistic. How can I make CPAs, engineers, IT folks, etc. sound funny?
