Jobs that are attractive?

[Shaglus_Ziegler]

I don't know if this makes sense, but what jobs make a person more attractive to you? For me, high school teachers are *chef's kiss*. Pastors too. And of course the cliche firemen and policemen. Who else am I forgetting?

People who are doing what they truly love.

Going on the YouTube theme I seem to be in this morning - Fabricators. The ones that see a bunch of steel and cut, shape, weld, and grind it into something beautiful.

There's no way my job is going to make anyone's list! Though I have seniority so maybe that helps. My cousin however: Fighter Pilot. Wanker

Don't keep us in suspense. What is your profession? Administrative assistant?
Accountant?
Cone picker?
Classical philologist?

A clown on a circus bike with two bent wheels and a big horn that goes "Honk! Honk!" And he must like classical music and be an avid reader of classical fiction in his spare time, and maybe play the violin.

Currently I envision Lisa riding that guy's big horn while he has his other big horn under his arse going "honk" with every thrust.

You don't ask for much! That's gonna take some finding!

If she's not juggling at the same time I'd be totally limp.

Never contact me again please.

No, really no problem. You are probably the bastard administrator from hell.

Lol! Nah I'm not that kind of IT Director - I hate them to! I'm usually in charge of fixing software that others have broken.

The violin is optional, so there's some flexibility. Am I being too fussy?

Hey, computer stuff always looks sexy in the movies - where the heroes guess the password in two attempts, and then get the secret plans in less time than in takes to open up an Excel file.

I quite like the idea of an alternative circus with unique acts!

I'm not sure that you can act that act in every circus.

Not overly... a swiss horn would have been trickier.

Bassoon or they're not even trying.

You know there's jobs to do precisely that - and I've employed some of those guys. Sometimes they get in and we have to fix stuff.

Lol - very cool Jupiter BTW. Voyager's are still going...

I know that feeling when someone just "borrowed your little program to quickly check something".
Bastards
My little program is something for data analysis (data I collect at the testing facilities) and it's probably 12k lines of Lisp code.
I don't mind if they use it. Sometimes they "correct" it but I'm not stupid, I always have back ups.

Whoever despises my programme, despises me.
Whoever badmouths my programme badmouths me.
But anyone who badmouths me can kiss my arse.

When my wife says this, she means it. For real. Then. There! Watch out they might take you up on it.

Yep know what you mean though these days I don’t write code but get teams to fix the shit they’ve written.
12k lisp is pretty cool though. I was C/C++ and Perl (which is evil).
Can I just skip some of that and kiss your bum?

Normally I get dinner first.

I’ll take you out for that after…

Aha, dessert first?
Well, actually the fish course.
But distracting from the topic. I don't think the more morally stable co-discussants wanted to talk about your admirable willingness to keep your needs in your pants first.
