What the hell do they do, anyway?
It's happened more times than I can count: someone asks me what Greg does for work, and I nervously stammer, "Ummm, errrr, something with computers or research or something. I think. But maybe not." Eric noticed the same thing, and also realized he had no idea what various other family members (Michael, Sharon, John Tomedi, and Brian, to name a few) actually did. "I mean, I sell books," Eric said. "That's pretty straightforward. But what do these people do?"
To the rescue, then, is this occasional feature: What the Hell Do They Do, Anyway? We'll take a hard-hitting look at how our more mysteriously employed family members earn their paycheck. The first installment will be penned by Matt Spillane (who we think has a fairly easy-to-understand job); look for it in the next few days.
Is there a Fam member you'd like to see grilled--er, profiled--in this column? E-mail me or leave a comment and let me know.
