Day job. Not what I was aiming for. Was an engineer in automotive then medical industry.
Got serious health problems for over 5 years, job was over... Had to pay the bills, worked as an electrician with far too much qualifications, even for the manual part of it to my surprise !
Then quickly got jobs around home automation and the likes.
I now have many customers that pay me for things that seems easy to me, but they can't have done by anyone else.
Maybe because I have both the engineer's knowledge and the electrician knowhow.
Job pays the bills and more so it's ok afterall.
