FoxNews.com recently did a slide show of high-tech jobs that got my attention for several reasons. One is that the current state of the economy makes anything about jobs interesting. Also, we just had our run-ins with spammers. Another is that the subject concerns professions that can yield lots of money, but cost friends.

In fact, some of these jobs are downright evil. Not as evil perhaps as posting bail for obviously guilty child molesters, spreading gonorrhea for fun or profit, or dressing in a Che Guevara t-shirt before attending an international summit, and tossing a trash can through the window of Starbucks while yelling, "Free the People, Man!!!"

These professions are almost as bad.

One of the scary things is that I actually did one. I was a telemarketer for a while, about ten years ago, as a second job, selling replacement windows. At the same time, I have a clear conscience, as my company was quite ethical. Still, I interrupted a lot of dinners.

Has anyone else here done any of these jobs? Or have you threatened the life of someone who has?

If it's gone beyond a threat, please seek the services of counsel before answering.
