作者: tom119 时间: 2009-4-10 22:39 标题: Occupation words

Besides common occupations such as doctor, nurse, teacher, policeman, fireman, mail man, cook, waiter, etc., how to express some unusual occupations in English? For example, full-time housewife? office clerk?? When Chinese kids were asked what do you want to be when you grow up, the most common answers are teacher, doctor, nurse ... just curious to know the likely answers of children in different cultures..

Modest, why not CEO?.
