I used to be a legal secretary which means I lied so that overpaid buffoons could play golf.

I ensure that a system of sub-systems meets all given requirements that the final salable system will integrate with...
Even the simple explanation is ridiculous... hang on...
I make sure other people are doing their job.

Hm. I put stuff in a computer to help people find things in libraries. I also lead a team of people who do the same thing and mostly don't need me around.
In my non-paying job, I arrange words in lines so they sound purty and look more or less profound.

I read and write. Occasionally, I speak with people about making their praxis align with what they profess.
Online arguments are a lot like the Rocky Horror Picture Show.
As soon as the audience begins to participate, any actual content is lost in the resulting chaos and cacophony.
At that point, all you can do is laugh and enjoy the descent into debasement.

Among many other things I went to Harvard—10 times a day for 20 seconds at a time.
I also took large amounts of money, voluntarily given by the citizens of Mass. to the Commonwealth for cheap thrills while occasionally providing staples. I provided protective coverings for cheap and valuable art; installed flexible, colorful vinyl coverings for interior spaces. later I stood around & talked about art, now I sit and control access to art.
For free I organized dinner groups of grumpy old men and occasional trips—I get to use one of my Esterbrook 8-balls for that one!
Pax,
John

The job title is Investigative Medical Auditor. I catch bad doctors doing bad things and get rid of them. I catch hospitals doing tests they don't need to do, or say they did and I get the money back.
