"You're invited to my.. party/event/wedding/celebration.. please could you bring your camera" -
2.
"Oh, you're a chemical analyst? You must know how to make drugs" -
3.
Oh, you work in construction? (Proceeds to ask about fixing things around the house, asking if something was installed wrong because it doesn't "look right", or wanting a price quotes for various projects) -
4.
"Oh you're a Graphic Designer? Can you make a logo for me really quick? It's for my cousin's birthday. I don't have any money to pay but I'll have multiple revisions that will cut into your actual paying work time, but then get upset when you ask for payment" -
5.
“Oh you work for a law firm? My son’s ex-girlfriend wants full custody of their kid. What should he do?” A. I’m a mass tort paralegal, I don’t do family law B. He needs to get a lawyer. -
6.
Oh you're a paramedic? I have this thing on my toe, Will you check it? -
7.
"Oh, you're a programmer? I have a idea of a cool app!" -

"Oh you're an artist ? Can you draw me, I'll pay you with exposure" -
9.
"Oh, you're a teacher? Please explain to me how my child's teacher had the audacity to give them a C despite it being very obvious that my child is a genius!" Bonus points if they want you to explain the grading criteria in a completely different subject and level of schooling than you teach. Like, I teach high school and community college English and Social Studies - why do you expect me to know the grading criteria for middle school math? -
10.
"Oh, you're a pharmacist? Well I have this huge, gaping wound on my left butt cheek, can you look at it and tell me what I can use over the counter?" Sir... Please go to the hospital... -
11.
Oh you are an accountant, can you do my taxes? No Mary i can't. I work for a corporate company not frigging H&R block. I mean I probably could but I don't wanna. -
12.
"Oh, you are a Mathematician? What is 35122*748383?" Use a goddamn calculator. -
