"Exempt Job Duties: Professional


Exempt professional employees include lawyers, physicians, teachers, architects, registered nurses and other employees performing work requiring advanced education or training. These typically are intellectual jobs requiring specialized education and involving the use of discretion and judgment. This exemption does not include skilled trades, mechanical arts or other work that does not require a college or postgraduate degree.

This exemption also includes creative professionals such as writers, journalists, actors and musicians. Typically, such jobs require imagination, talent and some unique contribution to the employer.

Well...He wears a white shirt with suit jacket during council meetings. Unfortunately, he pairs that with zippable fishing pants during council meetings. And dips during the meetings.

Operators are some of the dumbest people i've ever met. Good ol baws but not much going on between the ears.

From a purely semantic point of view I always thought a professional was someone who had to take some sort of qualifying exam or test to practice their profession after getting the actual degree. If you are talking (or care) about prestige ask someone else.

Lawyers have the bar.
Doctors have their boards.
PE's have whatever y'all take.
CPAs have their exams.
There are others.
