What do or did your parents do?

[aRdja]

I'll start.

Mum's a dermatologist, Dad's a general practitioner. Nothing too exciting..

 

[Big Nige]

Mum's a social worker, Dad's a salesman.

 

[Richey]

Nothing. They are retired.

My mum was a teacher and my dad was an investment banker.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Hahaha.

This is amusing.

My mum, in order:

Secretary, Admin assistant, head of resources, head of payroll, student, chief exec of Aim Higher North West. (education based system (JMU) aimed at getting disadvantaged kids into higher education).

My dad, again, in order:

Fireworks factory manual worker, postman, student, bar worker, ex-grad researcher, full time uni lecturer, part time uni lecturer, bar manager, admin assistant for CRB.

(beat that for a fucked up CV!) I'll explain how should anyone actually wish to know!

Your mum's cv is lovely..

 

[FoxForceFive]

Isnt is just? She went from being admin assistant/secretary/PA, to being JMU Aim Higher directorate in a very short time, & rightly so. The degree in Sociology helped her with that bit though!

My dad's is way more interesting, & way more funny too.

[Sheik Yerbouti]

My dad was an electrical engineer. He fitted the floodlights that currently light up Anfield. A lot of his work took him abroad to such places like Hong Kong, India and Iraq during the Iran/Iraq war.

My mum worked in shops mainly, the most famous being Nems which was a record shop in Liverpool owned by the Beatles manager Brian Epstein.
She was once sacked from Woolworths for hitting a customer over the head with a tray of toffee. She had been wearing a green ribbon for St. Patrick's day and he stupidly called her a Catholic bastard. My mum is not someone you want to cross.

Both are retired now.
