После окончания учёбы его забрали в армию. Служил папа в городе Самарканде, в военно-воздушных силах. Про армию он рассказывает много интересного. После армии папа решил получить высшее образование и поступил учиться на заочное отделение в институт. Он закончил его с красным дипломом. Сейчас папа работает инженером. На работе он очень авторитетный и уважаемый человек. У моего папы много увлечений, но больше всего он любит ходить на рыбалку. Часто берёт меня с собой и показывает, как правильно ловить рыбу. Дома папа главный. Он строгий и требовательный, но очень справедливый. Всё свободное время он проводит со мной и мамой. Вместе мы ходим в кино и отдыхаем за городом на природе. Папа очень заботливый и добрый. Когда я вырасту, хочу быть похожим на него.
