    I had a plumber once, older guy, who was really eager to teach somebody the trade. He “made” me do half the work and I didn’t even mind because I learned how to do a lot of shit I didn’t know how to do before.

    Be coachable in life and you will be surprised the info you can get from qualified people for free.

    Also if you are handy you always have a fallback job if your 9 to 5 shitcans you unexpectedly.

      Anytime I need to seek something outside my skillset, I basically offer myself as “apprentice for the day” and you’d be surprised how many will take you up on it.
