Do You Feel Embarrassed When You Tell People Your Job

Help Support WCF:

I'm proud of my job. Having gone from nothing to employing 6 people in 5 years, thus keeping us all off the dole.

 
I say no you first they usaly say i work as a shop assistant my reply is i work for my self and i own a company

 
all my family are lawyers! I'm proud to tell their friends what I do but I do (the yuppie gang) sometimes feel like a servant who should use the side door in some customers houses. it's only in this country that we can be made to feel this way!

 
I just tell people straight, don't be embarrassed by something that not only have you built up yourself but that can also earn you a lot of money if you work hard
Spot on fella, ive never been embarassed by it, know for a fact im earning more than most of my metes!

 
I do feel a bit awkward when it gets to the point where people say "but why do you wana do that, mine only charged £8" I always explain that if they have a compact round they could probs do 3 of them in an hour, so while your on £7ph, your windy is on £24 ph.

Somehow they never understand lol

 
Just wondering guys.sometimes I do when I'm being introduced to someone for the first time and they ask you what you do for a living' date='.i mean I make good money and no one tells me what to do,but to others it's not a very glamorous job[/quote']

It is normal to feel awkward sometimes; that can happen with lots of other types of work that aren’t in any way glamorous.

I can tell you this, any feelings of embarrassment are diminished or will go completely, the more you earn.
