Morning listers!
I'm doing a brief, informal survey to get some back-up for what I see trending amongst my own co-workers. This is for a blog post for our institution's website.
When someone in a (non-institutional) social setting asks what you do for a living and you respond - what is the most common reaction you receive?
Thanks!
