i liked it when I thought I'd eventually be rebuilding motors. But eventually I got work as a shop manager and if I actually had to touch a car, it was usually for something a little less straightforward than an oil change. Then one day someone stole my Milwaukee gun and I actually felt relieved. Like someone took a burden off my chest.
Well, for the first 5 seconds anyway lmaoo then I was livid. It was the big one that gets the Mercedes lugs out so easy, you almost forget how much you used to hate doing them by hand.

Funny how a stolen tool can expose how burned out you really are 😂
I feel a similar thing with gaming sometimes. I love modding PCs and tweaking setups, but when it turned into fixing everyone else’s tech issues, it stopped being fun. I’d secretly feel relieved when something made me “off-duty.”
Your story sounds like you enjoyed the idea of building engines, not the daily grind. And that’s totally okay 💪
