	Profession - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Historically, the number of professions was limited: members of the clergy, medical doctors, and lawyers held the monopoly on professional status and on professional education, with military officers occasionally recognised as social equals.
		Professions are also generally exclusive, which means that laymen are either legally prohibited from or lack the wherewithal to practice the profession.
		For example, school teachers often refer to their occupation as a profession, even though it is not exclusive (people teach others outside of the traditional school environment), nor is entrance competitive, nor are they self-regulating (laypeople in state legislatures or on boards of education typically set the rules for and regulate teachers).

		Whatever they were, their professions must have made them Earth-bait from the beginning; or else they had made themselves Earth-bait by inefficiency at whatever high-specialized professions they had had.
		He would be questioned and his lack of profession would show at once; and before Trevelyan, too, who ached with the pain of the drubbing he had taken and would spread the news back home as a salve for his own hurt feelings.

	Death to the Profession
		Many players are disappointed to realize that the ranks they spent in Profession (doctor) don't actually give them the ability to treat an injury, identify a strange infection, or operate a sophisticated medical device.
		For most players, their profession is just background color for their character, not something that has much bearing on what they can do in the game.
		It's simply easier for those players to put a few ranks into Profession (bartender) or Profession (droid programmer) than it is to figure out which skills actually relate directly to bartending or droid programming.

		In a formal sense, the elected officers of a professional society are the leaders of that profession.
