Occupation does not automatically disqualify you unless your work connects you to the case in question, but some occupations are not going to make it through voir dire. Keep in mind that you might be sitting on a jury in a civil case. Rather famously, Barack Obama was summoned (after his presidency) and he went, but was dismissed by random draw.
