If you are referring to the "who cares" well then I agree with you.

Well Deek if you're satisfied with 13th place, okay then.

Accountants are #3 - I'm just saying.

I do not have any confidence in the ranking if anywhere near the top 20 is #19-Real Estate Agent
(not anything but the fact that the RE industry is in the Tanqtank and even buffet {who claimed it would be better by now} claims it may be years before it gets better)

Well the Red Socks would be happy overall 13th

Fixed it for ya!

I fixed it for you PS

#1 Seriously??

Umm..no, not seriously.

So they wre joking then. *whew* I could plan meeting all day long! Just sayin'.

no, that one is real

If the list had been "Jobs That Your Friends and Family Will Have No Idea What You Do No Matter How Many Times You Try to Explain It," Compliance Officer would be in the top 3.

That's why I just tell people I'm the pixie dust spreader at the Tilt-a-Whirl

You all have me laughing so loud that the whole office can hear me!

Thanks Minion~ i've already been in the bar this am...

Guitar- I understand completely. I've just started telling people "it is my job to make sure our bank keeps up with all the laws congress keeps passing." That usually gets them started on political stuff, so I am normally off the hook.

President just came by and asked what I was laughing at. I told him "I'm just happy to be here." He said "Yeah right. What were you really laughing at?"

I usually tell folks I am the dislcosure fairy. No one ever reads those anyways, so that pretty much ends the conversation.

That is so freaking true!

When I say compliance officer, I'm usually greeted with blank stares.

I gave up a long time ago and just tell people I'm an auditor. Then they usually just leave me alone.

Just add A$$. to your job description! It's blank stares with a dab of drool slippi off the lower lip.
