    My coworkers are always surprised when they first learn that I didn’t even finish high school. I work with people who are mostly highly educated. Most with masters degrees, a few with bachelor’s and doctorates. While they were studying, I was geeking out over some project that I did just for fun. Turns out that the skills I ended up with were exactly what my career for the past 15 years needs.

      Nice! I kind of know how you feel. I’ve studied to be a machinist, now I’m an enterprise architect.
