My dad used to be a senior librarian which basicaly mean't be opened and designed libaries and bought lot of books (his claim to fame is he was the first person to come up with the idea of having computer games to borrow from the libary in the early 1980's, his libaries also had a large selection of computer books, people use to flock to his libaries to borrow them as libaries in other districts had not cought up).

He now works for himself doing somthing a bit more manual (I don't want to say what as hew can be traced). My mum used to be a medical secratary but is now a house wife and helps run the business.

I am a part-part time web developer (working on sites for Manchester University) , a leaflet distrubutor (for my dads company) as a full time student.

....

My father is a systems/program analyst and my mother is a primary school teacher (head of IT and music).

I feel quite lowly as most of you seem like you can't say what your parents do because they are CEOs of Microsoft or something :tongue:

Oh and I'm a student and don't know what I would like to do.

Co managing a restaruant doesn't involve anything. He doesn't do a thing! Which is a good thing I guess as he spends most of his time at the centre. Sorry no one in my family has any unusual jobs, they're all as ordinary/dull as can be... :smile:
