I think university professors (you know, the tenured guys at real research universities) are very noble, and incredibly humble ... and also very attractive. Like beautiful graceful gods, really. Nothing over-rated about those magnificent human beings at all.  |

Leach off hardworking taxpayers, that's what! Of course if you're trapped in a car wreck and you're seriously injured I'm sure you'll turn us away when we show up to cut you out. Just call your buddy and tell him to come out with a set of wrenches and a sawzall. |

It's pure Arfcom to start a post that looks at professions negatively. Rather than "what professions do you see as noble" we get "overrated noble professions".
I know it's all edgy and popular around here to shit on anything and everything else folks will lose their man-card, but give it a bit of a rest. Anyways....  Alabama - Forty hour week (for a livin'') |

Meh, I'll play then. I see a lot of tradesmen think they are noble. Electricians, mechanics, plumbers, etc. Worst are the damn linemen. A storm knocked out the power. Remember all the linemen working OT and getting paid big money to restore power that is their job in the first place.

The honest-to-God answer is: All of them.
The only truly Noble professions are the ones who get the least respect: Car Mechanics, Plumbers (the honest ones) The Painters, Roofers, HVAC installers, Garbage men.. You know..the people that make Civilized society possible for the rest of us. God bless them all. I had this eppifiny the other day: Thank God I have a well paid specialized skill, because I could never make a good living in the trades. It's hard, physical work. Every single day. I've always been a do it yourselfer, but I would never be able to get it done fast enough to make a good living. Also, the Military. Combat Arms trigger pullers are Nobel. |
