Hey Everyone !
Just for fun, what are some "special talents" you or someone you know are good at... But yet you're pretty sure that you could never earn a paycheck from them?
For example:
+ I have a relative who can bend their arm backwards around their head. I don't think Barnum & Bailey's (Circus) is hiring right now, but boy, can it be entertaining to watch.
+ My Dad doesn't cook, but I'm always amazed that he can tell my Mom exactly which dish to use for the leftovers, and it's always THE perfect size. (I came to envy this as an adult because I usually misjudge, needlessly dirtying 2 or 3 containers instead of just one.)
+ I once took a standardized test in school (and I'm not very good at them as it is), but the part I did best on got totally thrown out when being considered for the program I was applying to. I had to kind of shake my head at the fact that apparently, what I can do well in... Apparently doesn't count in the real world!!!
How about you?
What are some things you're really, really good at... But seem to lack a practical purpose?
