Just curious at what jmsort of career that ended up being for you

[–] Dagwood222@lemm.ee 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

The book comes in two sections. The first part is a series of self administered tests in different areas, and the second part is a list of jobs that use those skills. So, some one with good dexterity and good interpersonal skills might make a good paramedic, or a good hair dresser. Two wildly different jobs, but using the same skills.

Sorry, I wasn't really interested in the book. I actually think the career I ended up falling into was well suited for me. But I was just curious about what you do, specifically!

It doesn't matter what I do. Like I said, the book might list twenty different jobs a person would be good at. Each job is unique, but uses similar skills. You use the same skills working on a hear/lung machine and making fantasy dioramas.
