Moral Dilema/Prize Opprotunity

Alright, here's the deal. I'm going to present you with a moral dilemma that i incurred while i was on my cruise. The person with the most creative answer that actually might work/make sense wins a Starbucks gift card. So...here it is. As you know, I'm a pastor. And I have told you stories before of what happens when I tell others that I'm a pastor (conversation changes, tell me how religious their cat is, that they have a long lost aunt twice removed on their mothers side who went to church once). Well, on my cruise Chrissy and I had to sit at a table with two other couples for five nights, before we went in we thought about changing out identities so that they wouldn't know that I was a pastor. I wanted to be a stunt double...probably not a good option, and b/c we couldn't think of a good option/and realizing that we would be lying (and thats bad) we went ahead and decided to not change our story. But, for the sake of argument, what do you think would be the easiest profession for myself and my wife to pull off? Why? How does it go along with what I do now? The most creative an plausible (that means possible) answer will win the starbucks card. (this is a picture of the people we sat with)

You are a social worker. You specialize in leading people to find their positive moral compass. I know I can't be in the contest because I am an adult. LOL

The best and most plausible job you couls say is a teacher. Ya, it's a boring job but peolpe won't act wierd, and if they go in to questioning you could throw smoke by saying your a teacher in Hillsbourgh county. Nobody wil problaly ask more on that cuase people don't really care that much but if they do you can say that it is christan or catholic school. If you do this you won't really be lieingand it would work.

Do we win this if we can make you sound good or if we're honest?
Because honestly you could pass as an office worker that works at a dunder miffler branch (from "the office). I say this because anyone could get away with saying they work at a place like that and no one could care to differ. And chrisy writes cook books (well, tries to).
But if you want yourself to look good, you could say that you are a war veteran that lost his hearing in one ear, lost his friend to a hand grenade and now teaches disabled kids to play sports. (chrisy helped you recover after you badly injured your leg in the middle east)

I was thinking that Hal could be a salesman, or maybe a wildcat tamer. :P
Chrissy... Chrissy could be a rocket scientist. Actually, she should be a painter.

chrissy should be an assistant chef at olive garden.
