Very Good at manual Labor

At the end of elementary school, each of us got a "recommendation for future career". Mine mentioned - among other things - that I am "not very good at manual labor", probably because I got a nasty scar on my forehead when creating wooden art item using the soldering iron, among other things.

Now, quarter a century later, I proved my teachers wrong. I bought a large pile of wood and screws and assembled my furniture. Ikea furniture. Yes, all that was inside of those boxes. I have blisters but I feel proud of myself. I am Jack's content heart.

  4. no zrovna sem byl vcera v Ikea koupit polstar a rucnik a vsem lidem co stali ve fronte predemnou (zvlast expertum s nekolika voziky) posilal celou dobu vetsi nez male mnozstvi zaporne energie. Nejsem sice Jedi, ale i tak myslim, ze to bylo dost intenzivni a muze to fungovat, takze kdyby se ti zacli v nasledujicich dnech dit podivne, velice brutalni nehody nebo si znenadani onemocnel, alespon vis, ze si za to muzes vpodstate sam ...

  7. Two guys with electric screwdriver are always doomed to end up 'quite frustrated indeed'
