Maybe it doesn't matter if someone is tech savvy. There was a time when we really valued the ability to fix your own car.
It's not totally de-valued. Being able to fix cars has gotten me laid more than probably anything else.
Are you a mechanic, cause that sounds like a decent job perk.
A long time ago. Now I just do it on the side but knowing how to fix cars has always been a good "in" to get girls to talk to me but from there I still had to actually get them to go out with me and see where it went. It's not like I was just straight up trading car repairs for sex.
