Hvornår finder vi ud af barney's job?
Barney Stinson
I sin blog skriver han, at han er direktør for WHO DID THIS. Det firma, han arbejder for, Altrucell, reklamerer med at være verdens største producent af filtbetræk til tennisbolde, men Future Ted antyder, at firmaets største indtjening kommer fra andre, mindre uskyldige kilder som f.eks. skovhugst, olieboring, håndvåben, tobaksdyrkning og missilbygning. Barney udtaler i "Cupcake", at Marshall som advokat for Altrucell ville tjene flere penge på tre måneder, end han og Lily tjener på et år, fordi hans firma har så mange retssager imod sig. I sæson 3-afsnittet "The Bracket" siger han, at han er god nok til at lyve til at undgå anklager om mened. Fra sæson 4 er hans firma involveret i en fjendtlig overtagelse af Goliath National Bank (GNB) og flytter ham derfor til ledelsen af banken, men han forbliver en magtfuld leder og fortsætter med at bruge det samme kontor, som han har haft, siden det blev vist første gang i sæson 1. På trods af dette har han antydet, at der er en mulighed for, at han en dag vil skylles op på land uden tænder eller fingeraftryk, og angiveligt er han tidligere blevet angrebet af ninjaer under arbejdet. I sæson 4, i afsnittet "Happily Ever After", siger Barney til en kvinde, at han er "Attorney in Law", selv om dette sandsynligvis bare var en del af en scorereplik, da han straks fulgte det op med "Let's talk about getting you off" (Lad os tale om at få dig af). Hans video-cv blev offentliggjort i sæson 4-afsnittet "The Possimpible". I et afsnit af sæson 8 blev det antydet, at Barneys karriere måske aldrig bliver afsløret i sin fulde udstrækning.

In his blog, he writes that he is the Director of WHO DID THIS. The company he works for, Altrucell, advertises itself as the world's largest producer of the felt covers of tennis balls; however, Future Ted implies that the company's main profits come from other, less innocent sources, such as logging, oil drilling, small arms, tobacco farming and missile construction. Barney states in "Cupcake" that, as a lawyer for Altrucell, Marshall would make more money in three months than he and Lily make in a year because his company has so many lawsuits against it. In the season 3 episode "The Bracket," he says that he is good enough at lying to avoid perjury charges. As of Season 4, his company is involved in a hostile takeover of Goliath National Bank (GNB) and consequently shifts him to the management team of the bank, but he remains a powerful executive and continues to use the same office he has had since it was first shown in Season 1. Despite this, he has suggested there is the possibility he will one day wash up on shore with no teeth or fingerprints and supposedly has come under attack by ninjas in the past during work. In Season 4, during the episode "Happily Ever After", Barney states to a woman that he is an "Attorney in Law", though this was probably just part of a pick-up line as he immediately followed it with "Let's talk about getting you off". His video resume was published in Season 4 episode "The Possimpible". In a season 8 episode, it was implied that the full extent of Barney's career might never be revealed.
