Nuclear Reactor Design/Engineer, and Medical Radiographer (until injury prevented her from continuing her education, as it would have interfered with her future job).

I know more about the real inner workings of the Nuclear power business than most as a result.
Not terribly useful, but interesting for trivia.

Hmm...Boron-Reactant-Poisoning. Fun stuff.

Mom - Worked at a home for juvenile delinquents
Dad - Army. First Delta Force, then Green Beret. Don't fuck with my dad. I never had to play those "My Dad could beat up your Dad" games, because everyone knew the truth.

My dad is a software salesman
My mom had my dream job, a help desk person to a private company. She rarely gets any calls, gets paid a good amount and they can't fire her because the company is using 20 year old software no one else knows (and would have to spend a LOT of money and time to upgrade)

My mum used to do some things with art before she got too sick to work. I was never clear on exactly what.
Oh, and I guess she was a chef for a while also. And a construction worker when I was a toddler.

Not sure what my dad does. I think he moves furniture or something. Whatever. I don't really care.
About all I know for sure is that he used to be a builder back when my mum was. I think they worked at the same place.

Dad:physical therapist with 1/3 ownership of his company. He was actually the trainer for the BU (Boston University) Hockey team for a while. Thats pretty cool
Mom:She was a really smart software programmer until she had kids. She did shit for the government, like anti-terrorism stuff. She wont tell me about it. Now shes a support engineer. Intersetingly enough the Army (the one in Afganistan) is one of her clients.
