Can you state the essence of your vocation or profession in one phrase or sentence?

Librarianship is connecting people with the information and resources they need.

In manufacturing, resource management.

Skills acquisition engineer. Lots of different types of jobs.

I manage advertising production.

I think the essence of it is different from a simple description. That’s why I included a dictionary definition above. Here’s what I was getting at:

As an editor, I might say my job is to correct errors in documents. But the essence of it, in my understanding, is to ensure that the elements of written language appear in their right relation to one another while preserving the author’s intent.

Instilling hope in people hopelessly mired in mental illness

Taking care of sick people who refused their Covid vaccine.

If it’s a specimen from the human body (blood, tissue, sputum, urine, vomit, feces, swab from a vagina or any other other orifice) then I analyze it.

My vocations, careers, and jobs are like undergound rivers – Unseen and murky, but flowing steadily toward a beach with no lifeguard.

Everyday I go to a room full of children and tell them something new.

I scoop poop.

Solve complex problems by creating things or systems that do not exist or cannot be found.

@LuckyGuy

Finally, something for us to talk about at dinner. ;p

Trying to maintain the health of our terrestrial biosphere, to optimize my post-employment partying. :D

You have something to talk about at dinner too!

Hopefully we’ll soon have 20K things to discuss!

@Mimishu1995

Actually it’ll take no more than nine days, unless you log out.

@Brian1946 I’m looking forward to it.

Retired, and free to be myself.

I assist people in navigating possibilities to find best solutions for some of life’s most difficult problems.

Bring together systems that protect, control and monitor large infrastructure that keeps your lights on.

I assist in resolving various customer service issues related to social security.

I keep beer and wine distributed to desired locations.
