I am a US citizen who works for a foreign govt. in Europe. Whenever I travel back to the US, the immigration officer always remarks that I do not live in the US.

He then asks me what I do abroad and I always say, "Oh, I work for the government."

I never mention which government and the immigration officer always assumes that I work for the US government.

The little victories...
