Nothing says "I understand technology" quite like thinking Computer Science is about manufacturing computers. Dad's response is the perfect encapsulation of why explaining your career to family is harder than explaining recursion to a first-year student. The classic disconnect between what non-tech people think we do ("oh, you can fix my printer!") versus the reality of crying over a missing semicolon at 2AM. The computer science factory is currently hiring - must have 10 years experience in a language that's 3 years old and be willing to work for exposure.
