Same here
It’s none if their business
Usually I’ll say serial killer or porn star

Just tell them you work at Kentucky Fried Chicken selling biscuits and gravy all over the Southland.

I get that so it doesn't annoy me per se, but I also don't really like talking about my work outside of work....sometime I straight up lie...my actual job almost always prompts follow up questions

I can’t imagine being upset by this! Or even thinking about it longer than it takes to answer the question.

Are you embarrassed to tell people what your profession is?
Posted on 4/11/22 at 7:16 pm to Eightballjacket
I suspect you have other social issues too.
Just a guess.

how I supposed to best introduce you to the wonderful world of Amway if I dont know your needs

There’s two big ice breakers.
1. Where are you from?
2. What do you do for a living?
Me personally, I’d prefer to be asked where I’m from if it’s someone I just met but after talking for a while or meeting them a few times it couldn’t hurt to ask what you do for a living. Never know they might be some well connected person who likes you and says quit your job and work for me. I’ll pay you double.

They shouldn't be asking you this either. Someone deciding you're a suitable mate by inquiring about what you do is a disaster

Yeah. frick people for being nice or polite and making conversation. Or better yet, trying to get to know you.

I used to try and explain what i actually do, and folks got lost in the first 15 seconds and i would get the deer in the headlights look. Now i just say i manage an IT department. Not entirely accurate but most folks can relate, and then we can move on.

I hate trying to explain what I do. Because when I say Product Owner, unless you’re in the IT project space, it usually necessitates a 20 minute explanation

I panhandle on Highland. You look familiar.
