Class #2 Muggle Occupations
 

*raises hand*

What about Healers professor?

Raises Hand

"Professors/Teachers, Headmasters/Principals, Minister of Magic/Politicians, Aurors/Police Officers, Care of Magical Creatures/Zookeepers..."

Serena raised her hand, "There are reporters or writers for newspapers and radio as well as photographers and d.j.'s, and there are musicians and even bands or groups like the 'Wierd Sisters', and their are cooks or chefs also and people or wizards who run stores and sell merchandise."

Shannon speaks up. "How about the members of the Magical Reversal Squad? They are like muggle FBI agents, they have to solve the problem AND cover it up so the public doesn't panic."

Aurors and hit wizards are like their police officers

Mrs. Weasley raises her hand. Both Wizards and muggles own and operate store, restaurants, and pubs.

The professors are the same, save for the subject to teach.

The Healers and Medi-Wizards would be like Nurses and Doctors with the aid of magic.

The Ministry workers are, well, the same, only muggles wouldn't refer to them as such but with another name -- say, the Minister of Magic would be muggles President I presume (or vampires Lords... :mellow: ); the Aurors would be the muggle Police;

However, muggles aren't as concerned about keeping secrets - no, let me rephrase. They wouldn't be concerned about keeping secrets to us as we do to them - It would be impossible seeing they dont' KNOW we exist. Our secret is exactly that: we don't want to have them muggles to know we exist. But they have secret, yes, and I'm not talking about it in a personal level, no. I'm thinking of some gubernamental organization made to keep information from their own people.... In a way, they would be more like Unspeakables. Guess the name I'm looking for is Secret Agents. Anyway, maybe we have secrets in a different level, or maybe the same level. Both ways, it looks silly to keep those from their own people - like with Harry Potter beign censored by the media at his 15th.

Back to topic. The desk-jobs seems to be the same, as in Secretary. The Commentarist of a Quidditch Game would be the same as a muggle game one. The same goes for Quidditch players, even though we have VERY different sports from what muggles play. The conductor of the Hogwarts Express or the Knight Bus, the writer of books about one thing of another, the pop-singers and bands, the newspapers journalists (even the weird ones), the authorities in a trail, even the people who brib said authorities!

*chuckles*

Many of us would like to consider us different but, sadly, we have much if not every cultural similarities available. Only magic set us apart, but guess even muggles would act the same if they discovered the magic world all of the sudden. *ponders* Guess that covers it.

*Sarah raised her hand* Well the muggle and the wizarding world have authors, artists and poets. And of course regular things like shop keepers and teachers.

Since Lyra didn't have much interaction with muggles, she sat listening to the other students and vigilently took notes.

"I've gone for many things. Such as, I broke my nose 3 times. You know, muggle doctors don't work as fast as healers. It took a very long time to heal and it's still a bit crooked!
Also, I have a question. You said that gamekeeper is like a Veterinarian, well isn't it also like a gardener? I thought gamekeeper was the same as groundskeeper, who take care of the grounds, like a gardener."

Shannon raises her hand. "I've been to see the doctor loads of times. When I was a baby I got ear infections all the time, and eventually they had to put these weird little tubes in my ears to stop them. And I had my tonsils taken out last year after getting strep throat every month all winter. And I had pneumonia when I was six..."

"I had pneumonia also. I remeber I missed a week of muggle school. I was so bored that I went and begged my mom to let me go back. Which reminds me, professor, did you know that muggle doctors tend to screw up on medication? When I had pneumonia they gave me stuff I was allergic to. Also when I had my wisdom teeth out. It's weird that they do that. It's almost like they were trying to mess up, but that can't be true, right?"

Don't healers sometimes use the wrong cure because some symptoms are the same for many ailments?

*raises her hand*

"I have a question, since we're on the topic of healers/doctors...do wizards also get diseases/sickness like the muggle people do? For example, are there heart diseases or cancer in the wizarding world?"

"I went to the doctor's before. I had to go there so she could check up my asthma. My mom trusts the doctor more than the healers because she isn't sure what my reaction will be if healers perform magic." Tina said.

Pookah curled up in her seat.

"I hate doctors", she mummbled.

Eric nodded in agreement with Pookah as he turned a bit pale. "So do I,"

I hate the place where they treat you I had to wait an hour after getting registered

"I'm not too fond of doctors myself" piped up a first-year Slytherin named Gary in the back of the class who was allowed to take this class (even though he is a first-year and is also from a Muggle family). "The healers ahve a much better bed-side disposition. Fortunately, I've never had to have muggle surgery, I'm sure that would have been a lot worse than a few potions and other such things...is St.Mungo's anything like Muggle hospitals? Do they use various computer equipment or is it all done by some magic regulation of some kind? Do they just use old-fashioned observation?"

I've nvr been to St. Mungo's before.. But im sure in St. Mungo's. they use wands? in Muggle hospitals, they use the stethoscope? its to hear your heartbeat [ im nort sure of the spelling ].. But im sure in St Mungo's.. they dun use it..
