I,m a BirD DOG FOR GOOGLE.

Hah, nice! I hire some bird dogs myself for the ol' real estate game.

Usually when I say I help companies sell their products for a commission that usually ends the convo.

"Well how do you get to do that, you call em?"

Uhh, no, they call me, always.



It's those kind of responses that help me wake up in the morning(errr, not goto sleep at night)

"I own and manage a marketing company"

end of conversation, or worst case they they ask how much money you make and let you brag for a while If someone is stupid enough to ask more detail, say your employees "market" products for high end clients that you can't discuss because of NDAs and then look at them like they are a moron for not knowing what a marketing company does.

I'm always a consultant unless I need to impress, in which case I own a consulting company.

 

[The Scarlet Pimp]

Not to shabby...

I like to brag too so that works out nicely

My 10 high school reunion is coming up next year and I have been wondering what I would put down for occupation. I just recently quit being an architect (70 hr work weeks for peanuts is not that glamorous). So I will not be listing that...

I usually tell people that I'm a venture capitalist, and that sounds pretty cool, I think I'm just going to rent a lambo and tell everyone I'm a lambo test driver (unless I have enough to actually buy one by then )

Or you could get the lambo and just say you are sickly loaded.

Forget the test driver bit haha.
