circuits, house rewires. Please call for honest, free advice. We are
always happy to help. If you need any work of this kind carried out,
give Matt Smith of HR Electrical a ring - 07801 480 486.";

"If you need a lock opened without drilling or cutting contact Blakes
Security Systems Ltd in Gun Lane, Rochester, 01634 716983."; "Dave
Bradley of DB Decorating Services also does a really good job 01634
221009, or 07811 393430.";

"If you want someone to lay turf or maintain your garden, I'd suggest
you contact Andrew Short of 'Short Seasons'. Andrew is a qualified
horticulturalist and comes highly recommended. 07913 532777 daytime,
01634 717562 evenings.").

None of those activities are professions, any more than teaching is a profession.

They are trades or vocations (and by that I mean no disrespect to any of
them, including teachers).

Yes, I suppose you are right. A profession, such as teaching,

Teaching is not a profession.

The word is *frequently* misused to mean simply "job".

A job is not a profession. Teaching is not a profession.

I doubt that.

It's just that the word "profession" has been devalued over time and now has
two distinct meanings, one strictly correct and one which is entirely
informal. It doesn't do to confuse them, though many with misplaced
aspirations are tempted to do so in order to bolster their egos.

"Profession" is nowadays most widely used as a synonym for job, trade or
vocation. That's OK, but when used in that sense, it is not meant to imply
any notion of learnedness, trustworthiness or of any necessary adherence to a
set of ethics and acceptance into a band of peers. In this *******ised sense
of the word, I accept that teaching can be termed a profession, just as
gas-fitting, street-sweeping, retailing, dipping sheep, juggling or fixing
cars can.

Its correct meaning though, is resorted to when gradating occupations. When
"profession" is used as a means of distinguishing and characterising certain
occupations which are somewhat superior to the usual run of things, (usually)
require a degree-level qualification and formal acceptance into a brotherhood
governed by a self-imposed set of ethics and responsibility (such acceptance
being susceptible to expulsion - by the body *itself* - for incompetence or
other personal failings, none of the jobs mentioned above (including
teaching) qualify.

Yes, you can be drummed out of the Brownies for certain sort of moral
turpitude. A sexual offender may find himself forbidden to work with children
(which, from one remove, would prevent him from undertaking most, but not all
teaching), but that's not the same as having his sabre snapped and his
insignia ripped off.

Sorry sunshine - if you understood Google you would realise that that is
probably the number of times that I have called people ****wits - many of them
addressed to you as per this and my previous post.

It was you who believed the teachers and profession search - not me.
