Career day at show

Got a email from my boys teacher.

They are having career day when winter break is over and are looking for parents to come in and talk to the kids about their jobs and what they do at it.

I'm scared shitless.

I don't have a job that kids want to learn about. I manage a warehouse.

I hate talking in front of people.

What if i do this ansci have tics and outbursts. My outbursts are bad. I say some really r to x rated things at times. Other times I just yell or made sounds.

But how can I tell my boy no. He's so excited about showing off his dad.

You would be talking to people yes, but, they are little kids who are just like your little guy. They love fun, and just think of it as if you are talking to him and his buddies...and like one person said, you can also bring in a few items that they will love! Kids are so cute, their innocent and eager eyes to hear about a big warehouse may lower your anxiety 🌟👔

Just do it. Your son is proud of you so don't disappoint him.

Just say no

What sort of goods do you store in your warehouse? Perhaps you could just take some small items and let the kids handle them so you don't have to talk really

@ArtieKat safety equipment
Like gloves, glasses, vest and clothing

@Cigarguy101 I'm sure kids would love to play with them. Presumably the company has some advertising material you can show. Let them do the work and spare yourself the embarrassment of getting tongue-tied etc and then saying anything inappropriate.

Why even do it, surely it's optional? If you don't have a job your kid will understand that it's pointless doing it.

@Padfoot my job isn't hard to understand. I Run a warehouse that sales safety equipment. We receive it sort it stock it then ship out the orders.

@Cigarguy101 Oh sorry. But its still an important job. What about the kids who have parents working in supermarkets stacking shelves? But if you're uncomfortable then just don't do it, you won't be the only one.

Don't do it if it makes you feel uncomfortable.

Cigarguy101 · 41-45, M
