SOL #3: What job is more important?

Today on the way to basketball, Drew asked a really good question. Whose job is more important? Mine or my husbands. I am a language arts coach and my husband is an electrical maintenance technician(short for, works on the power lines to help restore electricity). This took some thinking on my part. 
Most jobs serve a purpose. Right? A teacher is a necessity. Helping students is an EXTREMELY important job...a thankless job. However, during storms an electrical technician is essential. It's important to have power. We take it for granted. We need people like my husband to go up on the wires during storms to restore power. 
Before arriving to the game Drew exclaimed, "Mom, both jobs are equal because they serve two purposes." And I agree!
