"What does your daddy do..."

[BenBhoy]

"He's a shepherd".

"...... what,....like from the nativity??"

my daughters classmate asked her.
Got me wondering (nosy bugger) what role/job/industry do folks on here do? Be as elusive as you feel necessary.

You make sawdust?

 

[Bo Diddley]

You make sawdust?

Lots of it, but it helps to heat the house. Not quite as good as freeforesters setup, though.

 

[Rake Aboot]

Retired very early from Nuclear power maintenance and Fuel route operations plus a lengthy stint in the North Sea oil and gas industry

I'm a Head of Procurement, about to change from current role in professional services to a healthcare organisation. Procurement is all I've done since graduation, and have worked in automotive, pharmaceuticals, facilities management, healthcare, financial services, plus a few others - so quite a diverse array of industries.

Procurement - where all the cool cats hang out. Said nobody ever.

 

[The Singing Stalker]

I carry a roll of toilet paper around with me, because the amount of people that come up to me and seem incapable of doing their own xxxxing job and seem to think it is my responsibility.

So I pull a sheet off and ask them if they would like me to wipe their arse for them.

Actually I changed jobs last year and it is a lot better.
Procurement darling, setting things up so the salesmen can make a fortune.

Ha, you just beat me to it.

Not quite what Ben was asking but it still makes me chuckle.
My youngest last year ,5, was at school when some kids found a dead pigeon in the playground, my boy waltzed over and casually said, bet my dad did that.

I could tell you....but then I'd have to kill you.

TBH, I'm about to retire, so then I'll just be a part time stone mason, forestry manager and home chef. Looking forward to a much quieter and slower pace of life....

I certificate warships for safety - the extreme kind, ie post extreme damage abandonment. Fingers crossed they never have to do it in anger.

It would appear they never will as it looks like they struggle to make it out of port, and when they do, they seem to need to go back, very quickly.
