I’d trade my car repair skill for house repair, and my musical ability for math ability. Both of those are far more useful in life. Maybe also trade my computer ability for welding or woodworking.

    Have you actually worked as a mechanic, then? I don’t know who else would be pulling out the engine of a modern car.

    It’s true that you can make a good living as a tradesperson working on houses. A great living, even, if like in my area there’s a shortage. I know mechanics and they seem okay, but I think they’re all heavy mechanics, so that doesn’t necessarily contradict you. One person that does auto bodies, too, which again, isn’t different.
