Don't forget the value of the satisfaction from having fixed something yourself and how good fixing stuff helps with recovering after spending hours in front of a computer
- doubled112 3y agoThis is so true. My wife doesn’t understand how I spend my whole day complaining about fixing things (sys admin) for work then seem genuinely happy to work on a car, bike, random electronic thing, etc. Completely different. On the selfish side, I might actually get to enjoy what I fix at home. On the brains are funny side, anything physical hits different. Turning a wrench, busting knuckles, burning myself triggers a satisfaction a screen does not. I’m not a masochist either. Why is a soldering iron so hard to hold? Probably a me problem. All those skills transfer around too.
