People Share Which Two Jobs Sound Suspicious If A Person Does Both

People Share Which Two Jobs Sound Suspicious If A Person Does Both

Suppose you're out at your next dinner party and you find yourself enjoying some small talk with one of the guests. You tell them you're in sales. They tell you they're a doctor.

Oh, and they also moonlight as a funeral home director.

Hmmm... sounds like a conflict of interest, no? At least enough of one to give that person the side-eye.


People shared their thoughts with us after Redditor CrustPad asked the online community:

"What two jobs are fine on their own but suspicious if you work both of them?"

"My grandpa and dad used to be their rural city’s ambulance drivers as well as the mortician service…until it was ruled a conflict of interest."

Understandably.

One wonders how long they ran it!

"I once knew a guy..."

"I once knew a guy who worked in a porn store (90s small town dirty-ass porn store) at night, and drove an ice cream truck by day. Same customers sometimes…"

TruthOrTruthy

I mean, many of us like porn as much as we like ice cream so is this really a problem?

"I bet..."

"Wedding planner and divorce lawyer. I bet they'd make a fortune in Las Vegas."

DancingBear2020

Curses, you're right!

Why didn't I think of this?

"Work for..."

"Work for a liposuction clinic by day, sell homemade soap by night."

federicoaaa

Oh, dear.

Not a thought I thought I'd have in my head this late at night.

"Head of..."

"Head of the FDA and a board member of a pharmaceutical or food company."

nameforus

You know, given the state of American politics, it's truly only a matter of time.

"Congressman..."

"Congressman and investor."

[deleted]

Could the corruption be any more obvious than that?

"Spider-Man..."

"Spider-Man and someone who makes their living selling pictures of Spider-Man."

bedfashion

Something tells me we've seen this before.

I wonder where...

"My old partner..."

"My old partner on the ambulance’s family owned a funeral parlor. We used to joke that you know we’re not getting a cardiac arrest back when Kyle starts handing out business cards."

ze-incognito-burrito

Kyle knew exactly what he was doing.

Did you keep an eye on Kyle, by the way?

"A friend of mine..."

"Bartender and substance abuse counselor. A friend of mine held both at the same time."

NachiseThrowaway

Bartenders are practically budget therapists, anyway, so this tracks.

"A chemistry teacher..."

"A chemistry teacher and a car wash owner."

Crunchnuggz

Another one I think we've seen before... somewhere out there works a chemistry teacher who happens to own a car wash and who constantly has to prove that it's legit.

"Day trader..."

"Day trader and being a member of Congress... oh wait."

PayYourBills

I mean... you say this like it's something out of the ordinary!

Honestly, the next time you're on a date with someone who has more than one line of work, you might want to check what they are... especially if they happen to run a funeral home.

Have some more job combinations to offer up? Feel free to tell us more in the comments below!

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

Even so, some people can't help but brag, or "flex" as it is sometimes known, about certain accomplishments or attributes.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Flips Her Car After Belting Out Ironic Britney Spears Lyric In Wild Viral Video

Whether we want to admit it or not, we've all had our fair share of carpool karaoke and maybe even imagined our car as our own personal recording studio.

But TikToker and Instagrammer Kaitlynn McCutcheon may have gotten too into her performance of Britney Spears' classic, "Hit Me Baby, One More Time," when the road and her car both said, "Bet."

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
