A short cut I can give you if you want quick pussy is to lie but it has to be something she can believe based on your age.

I'm 32 and I tell a lot of women I'm an airline pilot for Delta. if you are 20, tell them you are a boat mechanic. or hell just be honest. i've never tried the "i repair cigarette lighters" type of shit. Sometimes I do alude to being a drug dealer full time or a stock trader and that intrigues them but you have to know what type of women your dealing with on whether to lie, be honest, or what not

Tell her her your actual job, then move on to something more interesting.

End thread.

You don't want to look like a jackass or funny guy. Are you hiding something?

Girl: What do you do?
Guy: I'm a lion tamer.
Girl: Oh I see....hmmm....No really what do you do?
Guy: I'm a ladies' bicylcle seat hu huh huh.

This kinda humor is good in small doses. And you should speak of your job in good terms and that you get along with your coworkers.

A girl asking about your job is not a shit test. It is interest. She's not setting you up to make fun of you.
Girl: What do you do for a living?
Guy: I'm in I.T.
Girl: I.T. hahahaha...Did you hear that Jen, he's in I...T....hahaha

That's ridiculous. If you really work for American Airlines and she thinks its funny just play along..."Yeah I was goingto get you a free ride but you failed."

Guys don't be retards.

If a woman asks what you do for a living, it is interest, but it is not necessarily interest in your job. She can't be interested before she knows what you do.

It is, however, an opportunity. She is showing interest and prompting you to contribute something. Some see that as a shit test and resist contributing anything useful.

The two most common questions are:
1. What do you do?
2. Where are you from?
If a woman asks you one of these two questions, she's saying, "I'm interested in talking to you but I'm not creative enough to lead the conversation. Here. You lead." When she hands you the ball, do something useful with it. Giving a joke answer is like spiking the ball. Giving a boring informative answer is like punting. Don't do that. Matriculate the ball down the field. Every guy should have a stock response to these two questions. That response should answer the question and lead the conversation.

So if a woman asked me what I do for a living, I could say, "I'm a disposble lighter repair man." That would show active disinterest and push her away. Without a fair amount of attraction, that's a conversation ender. I could also say, "I work in patent law." That would provide information, but it would not lead the conversation. I think a better answer would be as follows:
"You know how Apple and Google and these big companies are always suing each other in these epic patent wars? Well, I'm like a patent war arms dealer. I get the companies the patents they use to sue each other. It's interesting to be involved in the real competition when tech companies go toe-to-toe, but you know what I would really love to do? I would love to study evolutionary biology. I'm fascinated by that shit. Did you hear about the dinosaur they found in Arlington? I want to go help them dig. You should come. We could be like Indiana Jones and Lara Croft. I already have a whip and everything."

If a woman asked me where I'm from, I would say:
"I'm from Rhode Island. You know that tiny state up there getting tag-teamed by Connecticut and Massachussetts? It's beautiful up there. I think everybody should go to Newport to see the clipper ships. But I don't miss the winters. I love warm weather. I could live in Mexico, I think. What about you? If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be?"

You already know these two questions are coming. There is no excuse for not having a good answer.

Rhody. You're so right man. That's great. I've always just done the boring answer of the "Ball Spike" "I shave dolphins," sort of answer. I think a mix of the two could be pretty awesome too.

or hell just be honest. i've never tried the "i repair cigarette lighters" type of shit.

If you have cool career, be honest. Though be honest in a humorous way... just don't say "I'm a computer programmer" or whatever because everyone does. How you say it will depend on you because you want to be congruent.

The "hand model" or other suggestions from Mystery probably were created because Mystery never had a normal job thus he had to improvise.
