I like Concho spend my time at work responding to/sending email, dealing with paperwork, and attending meetings. It all bores the hell out of me. I often wonder why the clock is moving so slowly.
I’d much rather be employed in an endeavor in which I actually created or repaired something. I’m pretty good with my hands and don’t mind getting a little dirty.
As Concho pointed out, there isn’t much money to be made working with ones hands in this day and age. As, I’ve moved “up the ladder”, the more disinterested I have become. I don’t really have a feeling of accomplishment or contribution to our society. The paper just keeps moving along.
