    I’m a dentist. You get surprisingly adept at removing and placing piercings in ears and noses. Often they need to be removed for xrays and lots of people don’t know how to do it for their own jewelry.

    Branch Manager for a 3 trade company. 30% of my job is to recruit new techs. Apart of that is to take them to lunch/dinner, outings, etc to get to know them and see if they’d be a good fit.

    I’m a systems analyst, I had to get really fucking good at assessing the stupidity and dishonesty of other people because I have to write documentation for people that couldn’t tell the differences between windows 10, windows 11, macOS, Linux, and Android.

    I’m a structural engineer.

    Spatial skills are required and some people seem surprised that you need them.

    Writing skills are also really needed and a lot of people seem surprised that the autistic kid in the back of class needs to communicate to hundreds of people in a way they understand.

      Why are spatial skills a surprising skill of a structural engineer? Isn’t that like… crucial?
