Same here. I spent my entire childhood being told by family and teachers how I could really make a difference as a reseacher or a philosopher or a doctor or whatever else. I hate engaging with "book knowledge". Nobody ever bothered to factor that in ๐Ÿ˜… All I really want is to create things with my hands. My mind is a nice asset when it comes to trivia or logical puzzles but I'm just not wired for academia.

But everybody respects a good solid table.
