I was very excited to see that we are moving up (albeit at a glacier-like speed) in the most-trusted-professions stakes! As a colleague noted, we have been bumped up above mechanics and taxi drivers this year. Given that it's from a poll of Digest readers that makes it even more extraodinary LOL. The link to the article is below, and here's the list reproduced. Very glad to see we are above pollies and am disappointed to see police come in 12th. Don't these Digest readers know any police? I'd have moved them well down the list if I'd had a vote... As for religious ministers WTF?
