What are the common stereotypes of certain jobs that you know of?

The more ignorant an individual is about a certain career, the more they will stereotype it.\nTruck driving is a perfect example.  While it's true almost anyone can be trained to drive a truck, few people realize the skills and knowledge required to be a success at it.  That's why the turnover rate is so high. \nPeople think it's no different than driving their car to the store and back, so they try it and find out they aren't capable of managing their time in a productive manner.\nPeople see the truck itself as "big, smelly, and dangerous", and relate these qualities to the driver as well.  They are ignorant of the fact that the only thing a truck does not supply the American consumer is the air they breathe.\nThink about it.\nThe water you drink comes through pipes and out of a faucet.  How do you think those pipes got to your home, or the faucet got to the hardware store?\nAnother example is the computer you are using at this very moment.  Whether it is a pre-packaged or custom built unit, every piece was delivered from the manufacturer to the assembler to the retailer... and it didn't get there under it's own power.\nTo answer the second part of your question from a driver’s perspective, it's the freedom to make your own decisions that keep most drivers doing what they're doing.\nIt use to be that as long as you were at point A when you were suppose to be, and made it to point B when you were suppose to be, what you did in between was your choice.\nSadly, the industry has changed, and not for the better, and companies are losing experienced drivers because of it.

I would use similar language, but not word for word.  When I am looking at resumes, I do notice that.  Just key in on how your skills and experience are similar to what's in the job description or advertisement.

Stereotypes:\n- spolied white women; arrogant white men\n- opportunists, and don't really care about others\n- smell like wet dog\n- are VERY athletic and perhaps into extreme sports\n- ignorant to the plight and struggle of other races\n- highly priviliged\n- talk funny (i.e. white women end their sentences as if they're asking a question, bringing their voice high in pitch towards the end of a sentence)

The stereotype which offends me the most is the assumption that all women want a man with money.  Not true at all! \n \nWhat we would really like is to be paid equally for doing the same job as a man and getting promoted when our qualifications justify the promotion.

Things are generally stereotypes because they are very broad generalizations of a particular group.  \n\ne.g.  \n\nGirls are bad at math. \n\nWhite men can't jump. \n\nChildren who are homeschooled don't get a well-rounded education. \n\nAnd in my experience, the people of Mexican decent or who were born in Mexico who I have worked with tended to work as hard as my other employees and attended the same schools as everyone else.

Have you ever had a job like that before? What experience do you have? How do you deal with unruly customers? How do you handle complaints?

first drop the wanna-be thug look and the details is that most of the " working from home" jobs that are advertised are marketing scams and loansharks out to prey on innocent people. It's kinda like working for a illegidumate company that does not exsist.

I don't understand your question.  Are you asking what jobs hire people who are personalities (famous)?
