For me, it was realizing that while I was smart, the shit level of schooling was more an impediment to me gaining the skills needed to continue excelling and I continue to be surrounded by absolute dipshits wherever I go.
In school, I didn't have to study to pass and there was no real incentive to learn how to. This bit me when it came to university because the lectures didn't cover everything that was to be tested on. Turns out, trying is a skill I never needed until then.
Then, in the workforce, I'm constantly exhausted dealing with people who are at best functionally literate and I have to cater to their understanding of literally everything. No desire to either understand the problem or fix the root cause, just make the thing do what they want right then.
school is kinda bullshit to be honest
The infuriating thing is that it doesn't have to be. It's been gutted, filleted, and various other words of a similar effect over the decades to the detriment of the entire populous
The system was always fundamentally flawed. It's conformity training where math and reading lessons are there to buy legitimacy. I don't recall anyone actually caring about the subjects for their own sake. It's all about the grades, the test scores, how prestigious the college, degrees as job credentials. You could replace the subjects with memorizing random nonsense and the machine would still function
Did I write this last night in my sleep?
I just told this exact story to my oldest yesterday, almost verbatim. Freaky.
There are dozens of us!
is this going to be me in the future ;-;
