I'm an antenna engineer and anyone who vaguely knows what that means asks if I'm a ham radio operator. Nope.

People praise me up for "saving the bees". Honey bees don't need saving. It's the other bees that do, the hundreds of species of bumblebees, mining bees, solitary bees etc etc. Bees that are outcompeted in some areas due to the number of hobbyist beekeepers and commercial bee farms. I'm one of the baddies.
I've always been interested in the business side of beekeeping, do you rent out for pollination and is it worth doing?
People are always amazed at how physically active embroidery is at an industrial scale. Everybody thinks it's just sitting around with an oldschool hoop, but I'm up and down the length of an 8ft machine all day, embroidering the same design on 6 garments at once.
I think the most I ever did was 300 garments in an 8 hour workday, but I put 17k steps on my fitbit and was dead tired afterwards.
