every one of these others are doing a job that is required of the current society, with a personality that is required for that job. Politicians are corrupted by power, and Ambulance chasers are opportunist who feed on the weak and have majorly hurt our society as a whole.

Reporters
If you mean the current "reports" in the MSM, then yes. But press coverage and actual investigative journalism, when done correctly, is the cornerstone of a free country.

You can do this without filing frivolous claims. Although some of these people really suck. And the ones who run the class action ads on TV are horrible. But Morris Bart, who im sure everyone thinks of a huge piece of shite, is actually a really great guy. He's very approachable, gives back tons to the community, and enjoys training young lawyers. My beef with him is he set the plaintiff attorney market. But I respect the hell out of the man. He transformed a profession.

insurance
I don't underatand why people hate on insurance agents. Would you rather just pay full price for everything? Med bills, accidents, etc? An insurance agents job is to find you the cheapest and most effective plan possible.
quote:
salesman
can be slimy, but the skill set to cold sell something is very respectable
quote:
politician
career politicians from political families and trust funds who only care about the next election and not their office are the absolute least respectable people on this planet. It is not even close.
quote:
real estate agent
least respectable? you dont have to use them, and they can be a great resource when trying to buy real estate.
quote:
oil field trash
do you like driving your car and heating your house?
quote:
regular lawyer
everyone chooses this category until they need one.
quote:
human resource
i respect anyone who can deal with an entire day full of dumbasses and sensitive sjws complaining all day every day as their job
quote:
operators
what?
quote:
or others?
No. It's career politicians.

Reporters
quote:#1 least respectable profession IMO.
Ambulance chasing lawyers
quote:Probably #2 least respectable IMO. Although it depends on what they're selling, and how they're selling it.
salesman
quote:Like reporters, this could probably be considered a respectable profession. There just aren't many respectable people in it.
politician
quote:I don't not respect this profession. Those guys work hard. Sure, they can be trashy sometimes, but that doesn't demean the work they do.
oil field trash
quote:Nah. This is a respectable profession.
regular lawyer

Right now? Probably the police.

what professional jobs deserve the least respect?
None.
All morally-sound work done well by professionals is honorable and worthy of respect.
Some professions are due more respect only because they are more difficult, require more personal sacrifice or are more dangerous but there is a floor where many crafts/trades are just as respectable as many others.

eta: salesmen imo
A salesman can be extremely valuable for an organization. Not so much the BS car salesmen type, but the type who can generally shoot the shite with anyone and in turn get valuable market information to help management make decisions.
