otherwise you'll be like me -- making a decent salary, but not liking what you do. I'm a coder at heart but my education is all finance-heavy, so I'm pretty much pigeonholed. couldn't get past the HR at google

I don't hate math at all though. I just don't understand why I was so terrible. It was less being taught and more him just answering the questions in the book.
I absolutely LOVE everything car related, but there's no way I want to fix cars for a living. I'd love to tune and mod cars for a living, but I'd prefer to have my own projects/builds in my garage. Having a job that pays a nice salary means I could afford these fun projects. So I will have a job I maybe don't LOVE, but because of that job I could do that I love.
