My mom: Doctor all her life. Very dedicated and supportive, always helped my dad in his ventures.

My dad: Well, he studied economy at the university, but he has been doing various unrelated (or only partially related) 'work' outside of economy. He worked for my country's Central Bank, been a teacher; but he has had his own projects as well, computer imports, as well as a food company; actually he is working in the planning dept. of a public/government 'office' related to Agriculture, I could not figure out the proper way of translating the name from spanish.

I'm proud of both of them.

Haha, now it's my turn! Neither of my parents attended college.

Mom: Inventory control in a hardware store (not a big chain, it's a local place).

Dad: Unemployed, but a professional magician on the side. He plans to increase the number of shows he does once my little brothers enter all-day kindergarten.

As for PC usage, my mom NEVER touches the PC, and my Dad uses it daily to check email and check out EBay. I use my PC a LOT more than my Dad does. For every hour he spends, I probably spend five hours.

my mom is an accountant (always has been) and my dad is usually an engineering consultant but i think he's doing some weird projects now. my dad knows web scripting pretty well and my mom is sort of helpless outside of excel documents... both computer a fair amount for work, but not much for leisure.
