Being a lorry driver and "single parent" I normally take the daughter to work in the school holidays as her days off out number mine ten fold. She is with me tomorrow because the school is closed due to the elections.

This got me thinking, are there any other professions where you can get away with taking the little'un.?

I do sometimes, when I'm training beginners or marshalling rides.

For two years I went to the same school that both my parents taught at.

Yep, I occasionally take my lad to work in the shop.

He likes makes big mountains out of boxes of inner tubes, chopping anything he can with the cable cutters and occasionally going up stairs and getting force fed biscuits and lots of cups of sqaush from the senior (retired) member of the family business.

Nope, I was the nipper that was taken 😀 My dad and auntie both used to take me in a fair amount. I always quite enjoyed it.

I work at home so often find Thomas The Tank Engine jigsaw pieces wedged in my keyboard 🙂

Does your insurance cover taking your daughter along with you? I ask because many years ago I got side swiped by a lorry driver who had taken his son to work, and he was very, very keen that I didn't mention the fact that he wasn't alone in the cab.

I've taken my kids along with me over the years, I think they enjoy the time out with me, they help me get my work done, then drag me into the shops to buy them goodies!

She's only eight and can't drive. 😉

Of the professions, I can only see that teachers can do it with any regularity, and then only when their kids attend the school at which they teach.

I can't see medics, trial lawyers, judges or dentists being too popular taking their kids to work with them..!
