I forgot to add these to the original post:
"His occupation was listed as teaching."
"His occpuation was listed as teacher."
"His occpuation was listed as a teacher."
According to CalifJim, only the first one is correct?
"His occupation was listed as teaching."
"His occpuation was listed as teacher."
"His occpuation was listed as a teacher."
According to CalifJim, only the first one is correct?
