My father used to be a butcher. How about you?
No, my father wasn't a butcher.  He was a candlestick maker.  Was being a butcher difficult for your father?
Well, he seemed to enjoy it I suppose. Butchers slaughter animals and sell their meat
We have meat processing places here who sell their meat, but at the grocery stores I don't think the butchers slaughter the moo cows.  That would be emotionally hard!
Yea, but you get used to it over time. Not that it's a good thing, but it happens. Butchers usually prepare standard cuts of meat for sale in shops or food establishments
So did you learn the types of cuts of meat from your dad?
I did, but too many to list. There are many variations. Funny enough, some places expect a butcher to have a three year apprenticeship before coming a master butcher
Hopefully a master butcher makes more money than an apprentice.
One can only assume :)
HaHa.  I think being a candlestick maker's daughter is better.  No emotional attachment to wax.  I'd name a cow and she would never be able to be killed.
