Pope Francis

Current profession:                  Pope
Previous employment:             Buenos Aires night club bouncer

I read about the biography of Pope Francis, and one of the best qualifications for the position is that he seems to be in tune with the common people.  I'd say that his stint as a night club bouncer gives him a certain perspective that is unique from the other priests, bishops and cardinals. This work experience keeps him deeply rooted right where it counts.  Do away with the pomp and ceremony, be in the middle of the action...  Keep it up, Mr. Tough Guy!
