I have a friend who, when asked what he does, says 'as little as possible'. I had a doctor who entertained the idea that the best insight is that there is 'nobody home'. My son and I used to have long chats about the difference between who you are and what you do. I may have been influenced by my lack of concrete achievement to speak in favour of being over achievement. I got the feeling that he was edging his way along to saying talk is cheap.
These days when asked what I do I have taken to saying that if I had the application I would do a degree in terrorism and political conflict.
