Do you tell new people you meet what you do for a living?
I usually do, but i regret it. I am an electrical contractor, and any time someone such as a neighbor finds out, they all have a ceiling fan or a switch that isn't working that "will only take you a couple of minutes". No homeowner project takes a couple of minutes, as it takes a return trip with the right parts or they started it and totally hacked it in.
I have started telling people I am a gynecologist, as I dare them to ask me to come over and look at their little issue.
