@Huuugo that only works for doctors. If you say "I'm an android app developer", people will ask you to fix their computer "because you already know more than me about it, even if not about the specifics, right?"
If you say you are an engineer, people will ask you to fix their computer "because that has to be easy for you, doing much more complicated things at work"
It's like you have the duty to help people when they screw things up "you know about that stuff".
No one asks a plastic surgeon to cure a cold "just because knows abut that stuff", but people does it with you if you're on IT/programming/dev related jobs.
