I was once set on being a garbage man when I was a kid. Not because the job was easy or anything, it’s just that no-one wanted to be a garbageman, so what did they do about it? The government made the job pay extremely well!!!

He’s right, you know. Without math, you couldn’t even work at McDonald’s- not cook, not cashier, not even mopping the bathrooms.
