One thing about the careers I have laughed about is when generations change over, you've got kids that
all went to college, and they have careers like "spammer," "hacker," and "silverware polisher!"

My RL father would have demanded his tuition money back if I'd come out of college with a career like that! On the other hand, I've seen a fair number of rocket scientists, lobbyists, and such as that. They start out earning really good money ($105) but I've found they're pretty lazy and don't go very far in their careers.
