Im not completely helpless! Haha. I'll admit he was never a good teacher in the sense that he would get frustrated easily and would just do it most of the time, but that's not to say I didn't learn a fair share of how to do things from him. I just find it wild that he can literally do pretty much anything and is not phased by anything. Growing up I learned to do oil changes, brake replacements, change car headlights or tires for cars, and we had the chance to redo a small house once and it took a year but I learned about flooring, insulation, and drywall. I wasn't there for electric or plumbing, but that doesn't mean I can't do the normal stuff like change an outlet, replace a fan or light fixture, or fix the pipes under sinks. I do not know the more involved stuff, though, like running a new electric cable and connecting it to my electric panel, nor do I want to! It's just not my thing, and that stuff makes me nervous.

I dunno, sounds like you might actually be pretty capable.

Maybe you just work on the next shitshow on your own. You might surprise yourself.
