I make no such concessions. It was a mistake, full stop. I should have either been an engineer like my old man (and frankly, everyone spent my teen years trying to get me into the saddle) or an accountant like I am now.

The only value I gleaned from it was the wealth of literature and philosophy I was exposed to. That's not nothing, but it should have just been electives. There are far easier and better ways to make a buck. I've worked in construction for 5+ years now and the people here are actually a lot easier to get along with. People look at me like I'm crazy when I say the media was much more toxic workplace.
