Given that he spends all of his time fighting giant mushrooms and turtles, I'm not entirely sure Mario has a job at all. However, even with his problems, he's still more reliable than most real plumbers...

They aren't saying he was never a plumber, they are saying that he isn't still one, which should be obvious to everyone. It's a job he used to have, and has since moved on from.

The explanation makes sense, what with him technically being a carpenter in Donkey Kong and having done more or less everything but plumbing for quite some time.
I do feel a little sad that they felt the need to actually clarify this and change the identity, it's not like we were all clamoring for more plumbing themes so it feels like they're just hurting the brand by actually going out of their way with a convoluted justification, just let him be Mario. Sidenote-no matter what they tell me he is, I would never trust his medical opinion. --- Mod me? You don't even know me! ... Copied to Clipboard!

Well, at first he was a carpenter trying to save his 'girlfriend' in Donkey Kong (unnamed then), then in 'Mario Bros.' him and Luigi had to 'unclog' pipes in the sewers in NYC of critters.
