What job title holds the biggest wow factor

[pancakeontoast]

Just for sat night chat, what job do you think holds the biggest kudos? I think probably a medical consultant or barrister... what do you think...

does this sound accurate ?

A geoenvironmental engineer is a special kind of engineer who helps with things that involve nature and building. They look at how building and roads might affect the environment, like the land and the water. They check to make sure the environment stays safe when people build things.

@Shopgirl1 familiarity breeds contempt. 😂

I met a commercial pilot on holiday and I was able to verify he was genuine. We had loads in common, we were attracted to each other and I must admit, his job made him much more attractive than a bog standard job would have done. Shallow me. But ultimately he demonstrated some red flags I could not ignore so it went nowhere. But very occasionally part of me thinks- what if?

Spy - If anyone's interested there's a true story here about a man who infiltrated the British Fascists in WW II. Fascinating stuff. Just an ordinary bloke called Jack. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0fqnlz5

Now that might be a good dinner party!

As a rule I am more impressed by how a person is in themselves, rather than their role in the economy. Some of the most interesting people don't have a fancy job title or career, or sometimes even a job. However, doubtless specialisms bring their own stories and experiences that are fairly unique.

Pope.

Yeah. I do site investigations to check for contamination. We also do noise monitoring to see how developments can affect it and testing for foundation and drainage design.
The best one was an odour survey, I stood in a field and sniffed every 30 seconds and noted how strong the smell from the sewage works was 😂

I know too many nuclear physicists with little to no common sense to be too impressed.

When I worked in construction, one guy was the Erections Director.

Wow. There is so much wrong with your post. I suspect you are looking for a reaction though so I won't be engaging any further other than fucking shame on you.

Surgeon?

I've changed my answer - spy.

some of them smell very omg, one near a hosing development and on certain days its holy trinity.

Crystallographer is one of the prettiest.

That would be my least impressive. Lefty loon who basically spends all our tax on migrants who should be at home working towards making their home better

Nice

with the secret Vatican vaults that presuming give the full truth to how humans were created etc

Commercial or Military Divers

Courageous, srong and skilled. A million miles from what I do.

Had anyone said Executive Personal Assistant? The boss of the boss!

Foster Carers - always have interesting stories to tell.

thats very true, its like the phrase do you want to speak to the person in charge or the person that actually knows whats, what, and chances are its the personal assistant that is the true "boss"

I always did think my circle of friends and acquaintances was a weird one, and this thread proves it because quite a few of my friends' job titles have been mentioned!

Barristers are self employed and most earn less than minimum wage
also their legal trainees and their clients solicitors do most of the work for them

so its nothing like the large salaries commanded in the show the good wife ?

We had a day where you come in and talk about your job to the kids at school. First parent up was "air ambulance pilot". Kind of killed the whole project tbh!

I saw an advert for "Dragon Hunter" once. It was studying newts for an amphibian charity. I think that's quite an impressive job title.

Oh and one of my colleagues is a "former zoo keeper" which always makes me boggle a bit as they packed it in for something quite ordinary.
