I wonder why they hated school. Maybe the problem was the school and not the topic? Otherwise I feel sad for them disliking the topic they chose as a career path :(
I feel like there's so much interesting stuff out there, there must be something useful that they find at least interesting.
Yeah I can understand that sitting on a desk all day, reading and taking exams is a pretty harrowing experience for most.
It looks like it's my personal tastes that allowed me to enjoy school. And I really did enjoy it! Hopefully other people find something to do that they love.
