I hope this isn't a repost.
We all have many things in common, our love of the blue oval being the major one, but what occupation are we all? Is there a disproportionate amount of one occupation, or are we all spread around? If I may put forward a hypothesis, I would guess that the automotive industry would feature heavily here but I may be wrong... For those of you with more than one job, vote for the one which consumes the majority of your time. (or the one that sounds more impressive!)
