> Honestly I could imagine a mechanic writing the opposite sentiment Coming from working class social/work/familial environments, I know this archetype well: John Ratzenberger's "Cliff Clavin" from Cheers. It's a dated reference, but it fits really well. The stereotype involves carrying large rings of keys on their belts, showing that they're entrusted with many valuable things, and frequently interjecting others conversations with things like "let me show you out to use that thing [blue smoke]" and "no no no you got it all wrong. What you gotta do is..." In fact, I knew a particularly untalented auto mechanic who insisted that his capability was equivalent to a mechanical engineer when sadly, it wasn't even equivalent to most mechanics. None of us perfectly gauges our capabilities relative others, but some are so very much worse at it.
