I’m good at bicycle repairs, I’m good at cooking and kitchen / ingredient management and also good at E-Mail. Maybe I’d suck ass at bicycle repairs or kitchen / ingredient management in a commercial setting, I’ve never tried it because being good at e-mail is the most lucrative skill out of the three by far and learning it took all the grueling work of reading the inbox zero principles once and then thinking “huh, good idea”. The other two have at multiple points involved my actual blood all over the place and liters of sweat.
I’m quite allright with my job as far as one can be allright with having to have a job, still feels like if I helped run the no-frills cafeteria that serves tasty, healthy meals that would be a far better use of my time than e-mail.
From seeing people post screenshots of their notification bells I think that inbox zero is a rarer skill than you give credit for.
Kind regards
