Are Varnas based on occupations?

Varna refers to the relationship between our positive and negative attitudes. Varnas are often believed to be based on occupations. However, this is not true and the matter is more complicated. Varnas are a part of Hinduism and represent the four social classes. These are: Shudras, Vaishyas, Kshatriyas, and Brahmanas. Varnas have nothing to do with occupations because a change of occupation wouldn't affect a Hindu's Varna.
