We all have little prejudices and firm our own stereotypes, that's human, but how we act upon them is important.
So taking into account that lengthy debate about people describe themselves as professional, what image do you instantly get of occupations?
For example:
Solicitor...I instantly think unscrupulous and opinionated.
Dr's receptionist...unhelpful.
Use your own job...destroy the myths about your career if you wish or slander those above you  it's light hearted don't take offence. |

If I see "professional" I think white collar desk job.
The job I do is professional as I have to know how to use almost 20 different computer applications, but also operate large format and small printing machines. But I don't wear office attire. |

"Accountant = dull and boring
Scientist = geek
Teacher = strict"
The teachers I know are completely bonkers and fun loving, but that is a stereotype.
Council road worker's....lazy (everyone comments about leaning on the shovel next to queues of traffic stuck at lights! ) |

"I think when people meet me, they can be surprised to learn what position I held before retiring from a career in that industry.....
 "
Yup I think you once told me...you broke my stereotype ...but that's good. I like having my view of the world changed. |

Photographer - glamour job with loads of scantily clad beauties to shoot.
The reality - dealing with a choice of; stroppy brides mum, stroppy kids, animals, screaming babies, nervous mum's to be, shy men, or inanimate objects. |

I'd love to fuck a solicitor - but not in the nice way. |
