Passport Office

What occupations are least threatening to US passport application reviewers?

I want to fill out an application for a US passport and I am curious about the question about "occupation". Do you think there are occupations that trigger questions from US passport application reviewers or foreign country visa granters? I am tempted to put something like gardener although that is more like a hobby. I think that it will not draw much negative attention. What do you think?

1. If you are a US citizen applying for a passport, I would just put whatever you are - unless that's like "drug dealer" or "bomb maker" - they do check up on random people. If you are applying for a foreign visa, I was just told recently that they mostly don't check things you put down, so put down whatever you put on your passport - if you aren't going for business, it shouldn't matter (again unless you are in some kind of crazy profession)
