"What do you do?". And more often than not I would tell them that I herd sheep or that I'm a plumber from Pacoima, a suburb of town that is waaaaay on the far side across the tracks.”
I love when people ask that question. Because most people’s immediate thought is to respond with what they do for work, but I do a lot of other things outside my job. So I usually respond with “ I like to work on cars, ride my bike, backpack etc! “ there is a line in fight club that always comes to mind and it’s “ You are not your job, you're not how much money you have in the bank. You are not the car you drive. You're not the contents of your wallet. You are not your fucking khakis” I try and stay away from the Porsche crowd ?
