Surprisingly difficult question to answer. Estate agent possibly 😂

Guess it's just that....Many replies here X out those whom serve and protect as a candidate for partnership.

A life spent is the service and protection of otheres...for this country and it's values is one of selflessness.

Giving.

Sacrifice.

Devotion.

A minute in their company would suffice a life time.

For me, no job on earth would place a red flag upon the path of my interest in....them.

What we do is not who we are.

I'm in love with a man who mows grass. He finds peace there. Solace from a decade of deployment on hostel ground.

Great question Bij.

Well, he was Military Police and an OTR Truck driver while we were married and both of those would’ve been my answer. They’re both incredibly rough for a couple and family. So, perhaps working on an oil rig given how dangerous it can be.
I knew a fireman, he had serious PTSD from all the things he saw every day. First to accidents, missing limbs, finding missing children inside tossed refrigerators, stuff like that. Pretty awful stuff even if they are hero's every day.

@JamesBugman Same here. A person I still know pretended he was not affected by all the horrors seen for many years before they burst out and he had a breakdown. The 'macho' culture of the fire and rescue service meant he felt he could not admit to being affected. It has not had a very happy outcome, I'm afraid to say.
He was close protection security for years before he came here. If he ever did it again I wouldn't be his wife. Even when he had store work here and chased the petty thieves I'd get mad at him.
