I’ve been thinking about this lately. I wanted to be a doctor, but my family broke apart in my teens, which affected my mental health and, subsequently, my studies. I worked in construction and as a driver on the side for a bit before replacing the former with work as a personal trainer. Now I work as a bodyguard for a rich kid, which is de facto more of a surveillance, driving, and companionship role than a security one, since his dad has hardcore professionals for times when security is really needed. I didn’t expect my life to turn out this way, to be honest.

    I never dreamed of labor, but i always wanted to be a racecar driver.

    Now i work for a Fortune 500 as a technician.
    I kinda hate it.

    I do, however, own a “racecar” (depending how far you can stretch the definition).
