How much time does one spend actually drinking?
If you really simplify a lot of the math, and even make fairly slow estimates on imbiption rates as ~1oz/sec, and assume everyone needs and is actually getting the old 8 16oz glasses a day, you get 10000 hours of ‘practice’ happening over 281250 days, or ~770.54 years.
What if we add the time you might take savoring wine, whisky etc.? I suppose swallowing is separate from swishing it around in your mouth, but I definitely managed to get some in the wrong pipe in the ‘swishing around’ stage more than once …
Even if you include an hour of ‘oral fluid handling practice’ every day, that’s 9656 days, or 26.4 years. Much more possible in a human lifespan, but that’s a lot of swishing.
You mean I really deserve my Master rank on Warframe ?
It’s extra fun when you’re drinking alcohol.
If you do 8 hours a day 10k hours is just ~3.5 years.
So pretty much everyone with over 5 years on a job can say they’re a master in it.
Nobody’s really working all of that 8 hours though, or trying to learn new things
No but I sure you’ll find people in the US who’ve just had a regular job at McD’s manager for a few years with practically zero free days and usually 10-12 hour days.
So he’ll be a master in his “craft” pretty quick. Might still be in their 20’s though, and a Karen pulls up and thinks they know better because “they’re just a kid”. Ugh, would be so annoying.
I started driving a taxi about two years before I legally should have (I had the training but technically no permit) as I drove my dad’s taxi.
So by the time I was like 24-25, I had clocked more than 10k hours. And people 10+ years older who didn’t even drive as a profession would talk down to me and question the most basic things. It was alway nice showing them how wrong they were. Or some times just pretending to be that naive for idk, please the customer or smth.
Still my point is 10k hours isn’t as much as one would think but obviously for a musical instrument or smth it’d kinda lot.
I have something called Vocal Chord Dysfunction wherein this just happens when I breathe.
I need to see an ENT about it I just haven’t gotten around to it.
