Years ago, I did a brief stint at a government agency which strongly discouraged employees talking about their work to anyone. Made for some quite awkward Christmas party small talk that year. "So, I hear you landed this new job..." -"Yup. Public servant." "Oh. What do you do, then?" -"Public servant stuff." Now, working in the marine industry, it is much simpler. "I get heavy, expensive stuff to the seabed. Oil stuff. Unmanned submarine stuff. On good days, I also get it back up again." "Oh, I see."
