What did your father do for a living

[DreadHead P]

He drove vacuum trucks for PSE&G, the power company in NJ, started out as a janitor, I'd say he did pretty good for himself considering he can't read or write

 

[Mr Uncle Leroy]

The guy who pregnanted my birth mom? never met that bytch mafukka

My dad who adopted me who I think is the best man in the world just retired from UPS

Money wise? Working at AT&T, Chase and Verizon in those years yeah ive mad more money than them combined (they didnt make much.. UPS and moms was a secretary, but always made sure food was on the table and clothes on me m n my brother back and the bills was never late )

Success wise? They have everything to show for the money they made, cars were paid off but they recently just got a new car, house paid, fixed the house up over the years.. While ive made more money (on a year to year comparison), I dont have shyt to show for it, except I own a car and still owe on it..

im tryna convince my baby mama to name our kid after my dad shes just tryna say the middle name... I hate this bytch cant believe im havin a kid with her always thought id be able to name my son (if she ends up giving me a boy) after my dad

One could call son by the middle name

 

[Mr Uncle Leroy]

He worked those construction machines and painted on the side. Got disabled and went broke and used 2 borrow money. RIP to him though


Im more educated but he made more money in his 20s. ... I will probably have more long term success

Moms worked wt a bank and raised us by herself until she passed when I was in 8th grade

chest getting heavy as I type this shyt

When did your pops pass? What happened? Who raised you? family?

 

[Black Magisterialness]

Pops was in nursing for most of my life then went and got his Masters and got into psychiatrics. Became the head of a program called Detroit Central City that focuses on the homeless and recently released from prison and tries to keep them off drugs and out of jail. It's funny as fukk going downtown to meet him for lunch or coffee and all the bums are calling my dad by name

He did really well, but most of it came after he and my mom divorced so i really didn't get raised by that guy. I was raised by the irregular shift, scrubs all over the house, A&D ointment smelling dad. My half brother and sister may have gotten the material benefits. But i was the only one that got that "Dad and Me" time, cuz he worked nights. So Saturdays consisted of breakfast, Spiderman/X-Men cartoons, Football and Streets of Rage 2.

My pops ain't perfect but i'm proud of him and i want to make him proud of me.

 

[Based Lord Zedd]

dad was military, eventually worked his way up through chrysler and is a supervisor rents out houses on the side.

not ahead of him $ wise but ahead of where he was at my age.

 

[itsyoung!!]

One could call son by the middle name

thats how it is with my dad.. but thats what we all call him.. so i wanted to call my son that

she fukkin all the plans up

 

[Nemesis]

What did he do. Anyways my pops is a Chief MSGT USAF so he's making bank especially whenever he decides to retire and gets retirement + a civilian job. I'm still a dependent for another year though

He was a diplomat for the U.N

 

[ThiefyPoo]

Also a surgeon. Works for Cigna. My dad made more money for the first ~20 years, but being an arrogant a$$hole has taken it's toll on his business so he's not clearing nearly as much as he used to while her career has gone nuts at Cigna.

I got a homie that he an his wife are surgeons man their kids are gonna be set for life

 

[sanityovar8ted]

my dads a drafter and he started his own company, but i will say its nice being a daddys girl

 

[mson]

He worked for himself as a welder, then he worked secret service for the President of Haiti. Now he drives a school bus and is counting down to retirement.
