I agree. However, I don’t think there is a profession which is held in high esteem anymore. Pilots are alcoholic philanderers. Builders are uneducated bigots. Politicians are corrupt liars. Plumbers are overcharging con-artists. IT professionals are unsocial dullards.

I think to be popular or held in high esteem, you need to be in sport, music or TV and willing to be paraded on TV and radio for public entertainment. 2,000 years and instead of the Coliseum and swords, it's ITV and microphones.
