For how long do you think someone has to engage in a profession and how recently, in order to refer to themselves by that profession?

Asked by jca (36062points) July 4th, 2011

For example, if someone has taught school for 3 years and that was 10 years ago, can they still call themselves a teacher? If someone was an accountant for 7 years and that was 20 years ago, can they still call themselves an accountant?
