I am amused (but not necessarily surprised) to see your #6 so much higher up the list than it is on mine (about #15 or so).

Taxidermist -- yeah, you have plenty of experience of telling people to get stuffed ;)

Shut UP Henry

That's quite a varied list! Mine is slighlty more uniform and actually includes my job (at 7). I like 37 best, especially the two days a month kind.

Mmm. I don't think I'd be any good as an addictions counsellor though. My stock answer of "Well, stop it, it's silly." might not go down too well....

Are we talking cartoons or Herbert West here, though?

Also, I've not heard of some of these positions!

I particularly like the juxtaposition of "Electroneurodiagnostic Tech" and "Pet Groomer"...

Tell you what, when you join the clergy, I'll come and sort out your boiler. And I bet no one's ever said that to you before!

You're right.
