Disappointed that "writer" is so low and that "super spy/crimefighter" is surprisingly absent, and anything with me and a foreign language is right out, but not at all surprised by number one, and happy with the overall artistic/creative bent of it all. Not sure you'd want me doing your makeup though.

    `Writer' does not appear at all. In any form. Nor does `journalist.' I knew all along, I should have been installing elevators. And what in the name of humanity is an `esthetician'?
    And why is the comment section of this site in German all of a sudden? Madness, it's all madness...

    Hey, at least I got 'technical writer' at 24. Love the environemtal angle: environmental technician at 2 and environmental engineer at 7. And the number 1 is relatively close to my actual day job.

    Just disappointed that Brewmaster was only at 39...;-)
