What's Up, Dad?

Here we see a little boy looking up at dear ol' dad, who was a pilot. You already know he had lots of questions in mind about his dad's job, and his dad probably had an answer for each one. What was your dad's job? Share it in the comments below! Do you have nostalgic stories that you want us to feature? We’re all ears here!

My dad’s job was electronics engineer at the Pentagon, working with Sec of Defense MacNamara. He received many awards for his inventions, etc.
And my husband was a pilot (USAF and FAA).
 
My father was originally a draftsman when he met my mom guaranty mortgage and title company. My father ended up going into the army. Then he worked at a liquor store stocking shelves and helping customers. After that he worked for NYC MTA as a porter. He passed away a week before he would have started as a motor man. .
 
My dad was an industrial engineer manager for Oscar Mayer. I remember as a kid some of the Christmas parties they had for us kids which sometimes included the Weinermobile. I must say that I am probably pretty well preserved from eating lots of nitrates as a kid. :p
