It's the bloviated policians, think tanks, admins, and amateurs who:

1. Think they know more about my job than I do

2. Couldn't do my job, but get to mandate HOW I do my job

3. Use me and use my profession as scapegoats for their political agenda

that are the worst to be found in my profession.

The job itself? It's a calling, and I love it.
