Came up with this list: (in no particular order)

Zoo keeper
Carpenter
Electrician
Graphic artist

Web designer
Sanitation worker
Boid ob/gyn
Therapist ( for both snakes and Herp friends)
Data entry
Scientist
Geneticist
Clairvoyant/psychic
Sales person
Ad Writer
Accountant

And Most importantly be a ball python fanatic.

Does the guy who makes up the names of ice creams at Ben and Jerry's have an official title - cause I think that might apply to BP breeders too.
