    I make it a point to 'NEVER' ask a person what they do for cash.

    a.] I think everyone goes through a time in their life where, regardless of the amount they are making, thay are sickened by having to drag themselves to their HATED job.

    b.] I know that I am not a reflection of what I do, and or have done for a living, so asking the question amounts to small talk, I don't really want or need anymore small talk.

    c.] Some people have reasons to hide what they do [e.g. drug dealer]. It amazes me that they don't always have a 'story' to offer as to what they actually do when asked [not by me]

    d.] People are always spin doctoring their 'status' anyway to give the best possible scenario. We are after all humans=liars

    e.] You live in LA. I lived in LA for 5 years. It's the most ego centric place I have ever been. There are just as many goldiggers as there are posers. YEECH!
