  • Do not fully know the entire context, but based on what’s given, it seems you enjoy math or majoring in mathematics. I think this isn’t an overreaction on your end, this is asshole behavior.

    To clarify, You have the option to learn math, you chose to learn math. I don’t think that’s greed or entitlement, you had the opportunity to learn math and you took that opportunity. Working comes into play when you are in a dire need to make money, and it seems you’re not in that current situation.

    I was once questioning my self-worth, since I wasn’t working at community college. I remembered in 2023 I was doing arithmetic, and in 2025, exactly 2 years from when I started, I was doing multivariable calculus. Within 2 years I’ve surpassed every low expectation set upon me: people thought I was going to do a trade, I graduated with an associates in mathematics, and I’m now doing a bachelors in electrical engineering because I fucking can.

    This random non has no idea of your back story, don’t let him get into your head and make you doubt your self-worth. If you plan on doing engineering or physics the math that you are learning right the fuck now will be applied. By the time you start working there will be so much fucking money that you won’t have a care going into debt. For fuck sake, I’m a sophomore, I could quit now and make $100,000 a year as an FPGA developer, technically speaking.
