Cool dude

Today, I had to go to my son's school for career day, I explained what a banker does, then asked if anyone had a question. One boy raised his hand and asked, "When are all the cool parents gonna come?" FML

Halloween

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

To #3-you've obviously never been in an elementary classroom. Kids are more brutal than Simon Cowell.

Tell that kid "Sorry, there are no parents with cool jobs coming. We fired them all because all your money are belong to us!"

I am a video games designer for a famous company and believe me, kids (and teenagers) worship me lol (women on the other hand would be more impressed by a banker...)

aaaaaw. kids are lame.

Don't worry man, being a banker is MUCH better than anything the 'cool' parents do :)

damn that sucks

Erm...so when are the cool parents actually coming?

oh...isn't this joke from a tv show? : #3 is partial right

lol well, kids don't give a shit unless you're an astronaut or firefighter, so don't worry about it.

Bankers are cool on the inside. Somehow.

As your post you should have just said: "Today, I had to go to my son's school for career day, and I explained what a banker does...FML"

#6 - I just laughed really hard because of that. OP - Kids just want to be impressed by what the parents do. Firefighters, policemen, and astronauts have the cool category on lock down, so you're pretty much screwed when it comes to career day. At least you have a job though. Be happy about that!
