What is the first job you think of when you hear the words: sleaziest profession, and why? I was just accused of being one of them by a long-time friend, but don't think I'm sleazy, and never thought of the profession that way.
I won't mention my profession, we'll see how long it takes to be named. Thanks.
I would say Pharmaceutical salesman.
used car salesman
investment banker
Lobbyist. Congressman. Most people on the Hill.
Goldman Sachs employee
CEO of a large corporation
Meth dealer
Lawyer.
Ding ding ding, I win.

I definitely need to modify my answer. Used car salesman is no longer on the list, but definitely second those that said lobbyist, congressman/senator, and lawyer.
I'd say cigarette sales.
Possibly arms sales to outside of country.
porn producer
yes to meth dealer, but really any kind of dealer.
anyone in the porn industry, except for the girls, who are all "putting themselves through college". but perhaps especially anyone who makes his or her living producing or distributing child pornography.
sports agent.
club promoter.
NBA/NFL athlete.
televangelist.

You're going to put an NBA/NFL athlete in the same category as someone producing child pornography?!?!?
Journalists from the New York Times, Washington Times, NBC, ABC and CBS......oh yes and now He is the president of the United States!

You know, this bothers me. I do not smoke, never have and absolutely hate it. I hate it. BUT, it is legal and no one is dumb enough to think it is innocuous. People smoke because they want to smoke. There is nothing sleazy about working for a tobacco company.
No, I don't work for one, nor do I know anyone who does. I just think that is flawed logic.
Distance runner
Strip club owner

Why do you take issue with this and not pharmaceutical or used car sales?
I'll throw out any sort of sales or someone that comes into contact with bodily fluids and doesn't mind it.
Sales is pretty sleazy in general, but some are far sleazier than others. Maybe life insurance salesman?
