When someone lists themselves as professional, what does that mean? accountant, plumber, insurance agent, hamburger flipper. I think we're all professionals. Round of appause to all who take pride in what ever they do.

yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy (clapping loudly)
glorified pencil pusher here

It could also mean HOOKER.

lol bornnaked, yeah it may be..

being professional simply means you get paid for what you do. So they get paid..which means they have a job....Whooppee!!!

I guess if you take pride in it, than your a professional, so how's biz?

I'm a professional at whatever I do.

or Gigalo...

I would go broke.

YYEEEAAAHHH, Go professionals!!!

Not everyone is a professional just because they have a job. Being a professional comes from finally finding something you're good at and sticking to it!! A pro is made of years and years worth of hard work, trials and errors, taking pride in what you do and never giving up. The pride you do (or don't)take in a job well done is also indicitive of your personality in general!

If you don't take pride in what you do, what else in your life don't you have!!???

......anyone can SAY that they're a professional. The proof is in the putting!
