Professions where recession wouldn’t impact

Just out of curiosity, what are some professions where a recession wouldn’t have that great of an impact. I view a recession, as I’m sure all of you do, as having a broad, sweeping impact. Which jobs would be least impacted?
-Public school teachers? Kids are still going to go to school, right?
-Doctors and nurses (more so Emergency room)? People will really take advantage of these services
-Accountants? Obviously, you’ll still have to file taxes. A portion will take a hit as most opt out to file their own taxes, but most people (businesses) will stay have their CPA file.
Agree/Disagree? Feel free to add more.

I still need to buy some debt portfolios to collect on while the economy is good.
I will add that my business is recession-proof and will actually thrive the worst things get though I am busy no matter what happens.

At first I thought pastors/ministers, but I’d imagine church income takes a pretty good hit when things are really bad.
Anyone ever heard of a pastor getting having to be let go??
Never considered it. I’d imagine a good one (genuine one) would continue working without pay if able.

Everyone has teeth that need cleaning.
Everyone needs insurance.
Plumbing too.

Pipeline, there’s no end in sight. They will continue to be built no matter the economy.

I know first hand that pest control does better in a down economy.

I’m in the alcohol industry. And we didn’t get hit too bad last time. It’s fairly recession proof.

Slum lord. There will always someone who wants to live in the cheapest house.

Nope. If the firm has a lot of small business clients, they'll feel the impact. I know a couple of guys that got laid off from CPA firms during the last recession due to loss of business.
