How many times have you been asked this before…”so, what do you do?”
It’s enough to drive anyone crazy! And, unless you’re an astronaut or a CIA assassin or something, chances are that your response is pretty…boring.
But those days are over now! Thanks to a Twitter user named Jeremy Padawer, you can now have a little fun when you describe your profession.
Poorly explain what you do for a living.

Let’s get silly with folks on Twitter and see how they answered this question.
1. History professor!
I think I’m right on this one.
I tell people who are 18-22 years old things they should have learned much earlier but America was too racist to tell them.

2. Survival tactics.
It’s best to be prepared.
I teach small children to light fires and use knives. And sometimes I tell them all to hide in the woods.

3. Either boxing or MMA.
That’s what I’m thinking…
I help mildly dehydrated people in their underwear punch other such people within a metal enclosure.

4. Teachers for the win!
Keep up the good work!
I silently judge 18 year olds for 5 hours a day, then I review their work and judge them again, but this time on a graded scale. I then I make lists of my judgements of them. Plus, I get to discuss economics and US Government all day.

5. Now I’m stumped.
Could be a bunch of different things.
I poorly explain things for a living.

6. Writing can be tough.
Keep it up!
I constantly try to rearrange the 26 letters of the alphabet in new and exciting ways

7. Sounds good to me.
And more people need to pay attention to you.
I try to explain why people shouldn’t vote against their own interests no matter what commercials say

8. School bus driver.
It’s gotta be, right?!?!
I drive a planned course to pick up and drop off tiny humans at government funded centres. I pick them up and bring them home later

9. What a job that must be.
All the world’s a stage.
Shout loudly, rhythmically, occasionally in tune and flounce about in someone else’s clothes in front of thousands of strangers.

10. Short and sweet.
Thanks for doing great work!
Stick ppl with needles until i get blood

11. I wonder what language it is…
Any guesses?
I teach kids in California how to speak a language that only .002% of humans speak, so they can talk to their grandparents.

12. Hmmmm. X-ray technician.
This is hard!
I ask people what they mean by “it hurts” and “it feels numb.” I then hit them with a hammer. Later I may send them to a place where they get their picture taken, after which I often say I haven’t the slightest idea what’s going on, but they’ll probably be OK.

Now we want to hear from you!
In the comments, explain your job as poorly as you can. Let’s have some fun!
Please and thank you!
