that's what friends are for

I was just commenting in my drinking post about Katie's lush-ful habits. See, Katie's family has a major hook-up. Her mom is friends with a liquor vendor so they have oodles of those little airplane liquor bottles in all sorts of fruity flavors like apple & raspberry vodka. So I started thinking about what other friends it would be good to have on tap:
1. Obviously a liquor vendor or a bartender. I'd prefer the vendor because with the bartender you would end up becoming a barfly at some seedy joint and once that happens, you'll never get laid.
2. A mechanic friend so you don't get hosed everytime your car makes a weird nose.
3. A manager at a really good restaraunt so you can get free food.
4. Somebody who works as a supply specialist for the government. You will never have to pay for office supplies again and unlike civilian businesses, nobody notices a ream of missing paper.
5. A doctor. At first I thought it would be good to have a gynecologist friend because the comfort level might make it easier on you, but then I starting thinking that I wouldn't want my friend to see my powderbox because then s/he would start telling all your other friends about your dirty bits and that wouldn't be good, especially if you ended up with a horrific case of the clap.
So what kind of friends would you like?
