Answer 1

My mom was and is a stay at home mom, and dad has worked in fields ranging from military, to owning a service station, to maintenance work.

Answer 2

Mom worked for C.I.L., the paint company, in the purchasing department... she said she loved her job and only had one idiot in the office. When she married my father, she became a homemaker, but aside from excelling at that, also did some substitute teaching and has been a part-time student since her four kids all became teenagers.

Dad started as a salesman for a chemical company, and worked his way up to top management by the time he retired in 1988, but he was recruited out of retirement a year later to turn a smaller company around, which he did in a year and a half, then retired for good... now he plays golf three times a week, claiming that as his "job". He is the best handyman I know... he grew up on a farm, so is no stranger to hard work... he has a VERY strong work ethic.

Answer 3

Mom has done so many jobs.
She started of as a teenager working for a furrier.
She's been an Avon Representative.
She was a bookkeeper.
She did some years as a cashier at our grocery store.
She worked for the Red Cross as a homemaker.
She owned her own Business and sold her crafts in it!
She helped operate a small hobby farm.
Mom now just has her craft business which she sells at the fleamarket and the odd craft show. Her things are all around the world.

My dad had been an ad sales rep., construction worker, farmer, bookkeeper, cell phone sales rep., Stelco worker, and many many other jobs.

Thanks!
