Congress, the only job ranked lower than used car salesman. It seems we have identified the problem, step 2 is voting them out.

I'm disturbed that 'journalists' aren't ranked down there with Congress. I'd actually trust a used car salesman over those two at this point. I know they're at least just trying to make a buck to stay afloat and you can negotiate with them.

The slimiest people in the U.S., the rich bureaucrats who are killing the livelihoods of average American workers or their overpaid megaphone who distort & sensationalize (or bury it if you're on a certain side) everything who does their bidding? That's a tough call.

Working in the auto detail sector.
I can say used car or even new car dealerships. Stupid **** happens in that profession.

I was a little surprised myself. I guess it is a matter of perspective. If the media is reporting on things in a manner in which you are in favor of, whether it is true or not, you would probably be more inclined to like them. If not, you wouldn't. I know I don't trust the media to be honest. They are dishonest in the things they report and dishonest in the stories they omit. It's basically state run media at this point. Certainly not much different than state run media. It's why I don't watch or read much of the news anymore. No sense wasting my time only to be lied to.
 
Notice how police officers are still highly trusted, in spite of what the left and BLM wants you to believe.

That would explain why we have democrat presidents. People actually do believe and trust what the media spews.

The news media are democrat operatives disguised as journalists.
 
I'd be curious to know where morticians would rank.

Burgundy?
 
What about carnies? They're shady AF. I'm not very trusting of jewelers either. And Indians, dot not feather. I've been doing business with a distributor in India for the past year and they are always trying to re-negotiate. It pisses me off.

Have a buddy who was a regional manager for Davidoff cigars and he said that in his 20 years in that business, they were the most conniving, shady ******* he's ever had to do business with.

I would think fairly high. Not much deception that can go on in that business. :lol:
 
"If you really cared about Grandma, you would purchase the Ultra-Supreme package."

Burgundy would of course never do that.

I may have to stand corrected.
 
99% of lawyers give the rest a bad name.

There's this lawyer I know who they call Jimmy McGill, shadiest ****** I've ever come across.

But then there's this lol:

nec·ro·phil·i·a

/ˌnekrəˈfilēə/

noun

noun: necrophilia

sexual intercourse with or attraction towards corpses

Not surprised to see lawyers on this list. There's something about them that makes your skin crawl.

Dr. Steeltime, what to make of this?

What do I make of that? The XXXL View panel is as dumb as you suspect.

Dr. Steeltime should be surgeon general. I would appoint General Lee as my second in command, and Colonel Sanders 3rd in charge.
