What do you do for a living (career)?

Plus the odds of him turning out to be a fine upstanding citizen are 1000 times more likely if you raise him yourself.

My wife quit work until ours were in school and then gradually went back to work to match those hours. No sitters ever.

My daughter thinks she has to go back to work so now my wife is cutting back one of her 3 jobs and will babysit while she works 5 hours a day. Again no sitters.

I own a manufacturing company. We make weightlessness. Seriously.

Do you own a drop zone?

I'm retired, and sick and tired of being retired. I'm look'n to be a "seasoned worker".

For those of you that may not know, that is an "old fart" that has "some" smarts and a good work ethic. Which seems to be a failing in a lot of the younger "workers".

Who'd a thunk??

I built a plane once. Part of one, at least. J-3 replica in spruce. Got the fuselage on the landing gear and, like most homebuilders, kinda ran out of steam. Plus we had another daughter, and I moved my office into the garage where the plane was.

Let's see. I've been a desk clerk at a local parish. I climbed the corporate ladder my the college food services starting as a dish washer, then pot washer, finally a breakfast short order cook. I have worked on the grounds crew at a campground for kids with disabilities. I have even been a superhero. Okay, I performed at kids parties wearing costumes: Mickey Mouse, Ninjas Turtles, even Barney the Dinosaur.
Right now I am pediatrician in a small town but my true aspiration is to become a librarian. I mean, what sort of emergency can happen in library? An overdue video? A misshelved book? Riff raff talking excessively loud?

I'll give you 3 guesses ... and the first 2 don't count.
