Just recalled my school work experience.
Career advisor: "What's your dream placement? Think big!"
Me: "I'd like to work in TV, film or..."
Career advisor: "What's your dad's job?"
Me: "Sales rep in a menswear firm"
Career advisor: "Ok, so I'm placing you in a dept store in menswear. Have fun!"
@Richard_Littler My high school guidance counselor told me I was better off avoiding college and working at McDonald's. I was a straight-A student so why she suggested that is still a mystery, and I graduated college with high honours and started my own business right out of high school.
