Do you love children by any chance?
That's concerning.
Better than being told you should be a school guidance councilor.
That’s how they reproduce, by misguiding others
Well then you can find out who guides the guidance counselors
Isn't that just what they say if they like you?
I was told to be a garbage man. Who the fuck made these tests? My guidance counselor for years told me not to go to college.
I'm a software engineer now, and while I believe garbage men deserve better pay and benefits and recognition as essential skilled workers, who the fuck tells that to a kid? That they should give up on college and work a labor job for their entire life?

So, you followed his advice I see :D (I'm joking, of course)
This whole thing about determining your best job or whatever always seemed very weird to me (we don't do that much here in France). I mean, I did not know what I would do after getting a Ph.D., how the heck is a stranger supposed to know like fifteen years before that.
No you're actually right, I didn't go to college... Because it was expensive, not because of the advice lol
No clue why they thought it was a good idea. Maybe it was a scare/reverse-psychology tactic to get us to study something specific.
Hell as a teen I fucking hated those tests because I didn't even know what I wanted to study, and everything I started just felt either so daunting or not worth my time. It straight up advised me to be an accountant and I got depressed thinking that's what my life would be.
Nowadays I'm in IT, and sure, a bit on the full side, but I actually get it, makes good money, and on the side I paint for fun. Not the worst life, and certantly better than being a goddamn accountant.
Mine told me that I should be a plumber. I took it after graduating college with a degree in Data Science. I kind of wish I did the plumbing thing considering the money they rake in. Problem is that I don’t like crawling in attics and under houses.
I would also love to be away from society for long stretches of time
My bully classmate was told he should be in the "informal economy" basically was told to sell hot dogs on the street without a license.
I got produce manager at a market, no joke.
I got stripper
Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/psKwdQ-6kaY

I'm open-source, check me out at GitHub.
I just did a career test as i got curious, it said i'm social even after i explicity answered 12 different questions to imply i'm quite the opposite.
They told me to work in a kitchen, i hate kitchen and i have eating issues. They said i should be a amanuensis, fam i can't even process a sentence the moment a needle drops in the middle of one.
If it was up to me i would just sit at my computer and eat chocolate while playing video games until i die.
I tried learning to code but i can't remember what i did an hour ago even if i do it over and over multiple times in a row, multiple days or even weeks after eachother.
I'm not cut out to be a functional member of todays society.
I got taxi cab driver.
