What do I do for a living....?
The answer depends on the circumstances and who is doing the asking...
For instance...at parties...I tell the ladies i am Boudiour talent scout.
At the same parties, I tell the guys I am a psychiatrist...
I have found, no other 'occupation' clears the room of blokes so quickly.......  |

And what's the bet, their girlfriends would force them back into the room to make an appointment...?
Cripes mate, the idea is to get a date....not put the shielas off for life...... |

I reply something along the lines of "I work in pest control, specialising in dinosaurs"
When people reply "But arent they extinct?" I have to say "Yup, I was far too good at my job." |
