Yes, they are all George professions. Interestingly, only one of them is a position he actually had (Yankees).

Funny story...my wife is a realtor and took me to a Top Producer "Elite Retreat" in Boca Raton one year when we were a fairly new couple (this was maybe 5 years ago). When the other realtors asked me what I did I would alway respond with one of George's professions from the show. I had them going on Importer/Exporter. I told them I imported latex to tie the 2 jobs into one. I really had them at Marine Biologist. I have enough knowledge of the subject to keep them intrigued for quite some time.

Eventually they all realized I was full of crap. Then they didn't believe me when I told them I was in biotech, which I am.
