Tomorrow I'll be working on a ladder again, and that, combined with the current holiday, got me thinking about something perhaps better explained by the sketch. Manual labor is often my vocation; I do not know if I would consider it an avocation. As of now, I take any available tech gig because I have no financial safety net. I won't pretend there are not aspects of it I like very much, but I wonder... If my upbringing had been different, would I feel compelled to do what so many think is a man's work? On the other hand, if I have a true passion for it that could have been supported early, how much more would I know now? How much more confident would I be?
Just a thought. Happy Father's Day, everyone.
