Nobody's really working all of that 8 hours though, or trying to learn new things

No but I sure you'll find people in the US who've just had a regular job at McD's manager for a few years with practically zero free days and usually 10-12 hour days.

So he'll be a master in his "craft" pretty quick. Might still be in their 20's though, and a Karen pulls up and thinks they know better because "they're just a kid". Ugh, would be so annoying.

I started driving a taxi about two years before I legally should have (I had the training but technically no permit) as I drove my dad's taxi.

So by the time I was like 24-25, I had clocked more than 10k hours. And people 10+ years older who didn't even drive as a profession would talk down to me and question the most basic things. It was alway nice showing them how wrong they were. Or some times just pretending to be that naive for idk, please the customer or smth.

Still my point is 10k hours isn't as much as one would think but obviously for a musical instrument or smth it'd kinda lot.
