You are right.
I get paid to be a dick to people. At the moment it's large financial institutions so nobody minds.

Weeeell, I realised at about 25 that the reason I didn't want to do anything was because I'd only been exposed
to academic schoolwork and office admin stuff and that I was bored rigid. I tried a few bits, discovered I was good at building and fixing stuff and went from there.

It takes a lot of luck to get into anything practical if you've got zero experience and haven't done an apprenticeship, but I eventually found something that let me lie sufficiently convincingly on my CV to get an IT job.
