Can anyone tell me what Thelma Lou did for a living on TAGS because I can't ever recall it being mentioned o the show

I think she was a nurse or something. There were a couple episodes that she mentioned she had to get back to the office.

I always figured she was a nurse.

Maybe so, but when she mentioned having to "get back to the office" in one of the episodes, it never occurred to me that it may have been a medical or dental office -- I thought it implyed she was doing secretarial work (like for accountants, attorneys, insurance agency, etc.).

If she were a nurse, with as many appearances as she had, I would think at least once she would've been in a white uniform.

I think the general theory is that she worked in an insurance office.
