How many Lemmy users are non-technical background?

I think most all of us here on Lemmy are people with technical background. Most of my professional contacts remained using Reddit, Twitter and even excited when Threads launched.

If you are non-tech background, please comment and share what you do for life.

If you have tech background, upvote this to help promote this post so that we can find more non-tech users on Lemmy.

I'm a truck driver though I do have a Master's in maths. Make of that what you will.

You did the math and realized you could get a job elsewhere.

How'd you end up in that career?

Turns out a maths Master's isn't specific enough for most jobs I applied for. I eventually got fed up with the ridiculously long application processes and took the easy route.

The only one with math masters getting hired for their knowledge I know was hired by NSA

My truck driving cousin likewise has BS in physics and a masters in education
