Among my family and friends, I'm the guy to call for anything to do with trees. I was an arborist for several years so I always have people asking me for advice or help on what to do with some tree or trees on their property. So many people have wanted me to do jobs that I would quote for clients for over $1000 for them for a case of beer or a dinner or some shit. Even worse is an aunt of mine somehow thinks that me being an arborist means I'm some kind of gardening expert, so she would always want me to come over and help with her garden. I don't know shit about flowers and stuff like that. Most times she just wanted me to do the grunt work anyway, like turning over all her garden beds.
But with my friends, they look to me as some kind of guru for relationship advice. All the time they call me up to help them with their problems. And I have to admit, I give solid and practical advice every time. Seriously if everyone followed my advice they would all have happy lives and incredible relationships. But I don't know why they even come to me in the first place because I clearly don't follow my own advice. My personal life is a wreck and I've never really been too successful with long term relationships. So I don't get it, I always point that out when they ask me for advice but they keep coming back for more.
