People often work below their skill set.

I mean, I have the knowledge, education, and experience to do some amazing analyses in my job. Shit that could save clients millions a year.

Despite that, I'm almost entirely limited by the fact that my consultants don't want to have to explain shit to people who make way too much money making insanely important business decisions and don't have an ounce of analytical literacy. Also, my work peers couldn't do a fraction of what I can, and anything I do needs to be easily replicated if I get hit by a bus, go on vacation, or quit.

So I plug some numbers into a template 2 hours a day and then spend the rest of my day answering stupid questions, posting on Reddit, and learning to code so I can get another autopilot job to supplement my main career.
