Maybe don't brag about your job.

We don't know if they were bragging or not. It's pretty common to ask what someone's job is during small talk. For all we know they literally just said their job title and left it at that.

Jobs come up pretty damn often in conversation with strangers. If they ask, youre obliged to tell them the truth. Doing so would hardly constitute bragging in my opinion.

Hmm, maybe you should become a vampire. That usually does the trick.
