GOD it is so satisfying when I have to calculate something at work and it's correct. Makes me feel very powerful
#alek talks#this is so funny because im an english major. my whole life I've been like#doing humanities or liberal arts whatever you call it#in middle school i barely passed math in high school#well i actually liked it more cause i liked algebra#but because im dyslexic i would always mix up numbers in long equations so the method was right but the answers were wrong#and i just kinda#accidentally and gradually wormed myself into working in payroll just by the virtue of 1) speaking english 2) just being generally#good at problem solving or whatever. im missing the english word equivalent here (which is a shame its a good word)#and now i calculate people's taxes?#really goes to show like what you do at school and what you do for college/university has so little meaning. lol
