yes I honestly think that I could say that I am that type of person, my first job was a cook and waittress then I went into construction where I was taught plumbing and did that for a couple of years as well as while doing that learned how to weld, mig weld tig weld and stick weld.After that I spent some time cutting up meat in a factory and packageing.Then I ended up building semi trailers and was the lead person on the axle line, I can build a semi trailer from the frame up and assemble all the air systems and air rides on them.I moved to minnesota and learned professional painting and wallpapering so ya I think that I would fall into that category beside cleaning and cooking, and learning web design.and I have done about a year of roofing too.

yes, i find that i am such person. i can do many types of work, in school i was good in both science and art and also language. i can make good paintings, i score in math, i can cook quite well, i can cut hair, i can sew clothes. i got certificate for scoring highest mark in a computer course at university level. but several years ago i realized that be specialize in one thing is better than being good in many things. i want to be very good in 'one thing' and about other things like painting, math, science etc i can get help from others, i mean i will pay others to do such things if i need too.
you specialize in one thing and you will get paid handsomely for that specialization! like a specialist doctor, people will pay hundreds of dollar for a service from them, but for 'jack of all trades' doctors their services are cheap!

I guess I can say that I'm a jack of all trades. I' quite knowledgeable when it comes to computers.(programming and what not) Also, I'm a musician. I play guitar, bass and sometimes percussions. To add up, I'm also a performer. Dance and act. But in all these, I'm not all good. As the saying goes, Jack of All trades and Master of None.
