:/ i think the first step is disregarding the thought process that a "Professional job" is not a manual job....that's kind of an insulting thing to say.

Army, Marine Corps, Wildland Firefighting, Owning 3x Coffee Shops, and now Software Dev for 10 years.....

just saying.

You're the second person to pick up on this. I don't really even understand what you're saying.

In the UK (and British English) there are professions. Those professions are things like Doctor, Banker, Salesperson, Teacher etc. I didn't write the rules of how British English works.
