Any career.

Had a plumber once who spent the entire hour ranting about being a master plumber and how being a unionized tradesman is the only honorable profession and the water works guy is an idiot for not taking his word as gospel...

He was also like 160cm tall and bald, most insecure being I've ever observed walking this planet.

But that, "my job makes me better" vibe isn't unique to him. Seen it in doctors, lawyers, programmers, policemen, social workers, therapists...

    Yeah, I hate this shit.

    I like people who are really good at their jobs, but don't give a fuck about it otherwise. these are the same folks, who don't lecture other folks about shit and their pride is in their work, not in their sense of superiority to other folks.
