About this Quote

John Hume's quote about his daddy's career as a civil servant provides insight into the life of a middle-ranking public servant in the early 20th century. His father worked in the field of Administrative Labour, which was responsible for managing employment and unemployment problems. This was a difficult job, as the financial conditions of the time were often unpredictable and unpredictable. The truth that his daddy was a middle-ranking civil servant suggests that he was respected and valued by his superiors, but also that he was not in a position of terrific power or influence. His work was likely crucial, but not attractive. It is a testament to his dedication and hard work that he was able to attend to his family and serve his country in this capability.
