    What are they really creating ? pure ideas that somehow mirror reality through their propositions is what I think and some others but the question is too philosophically complicated to try to hash out here. Math does make you think about the world in a different way or look at the world in a different way but you would not know because you suck at math :

    Knowing mathematics is like wearing a pair of X-ray specs that reveal hidden structures underneath the messy and chaotic surface of the world. Math is a science of not being wrong about things, its techniques and habits hammered out by centuries of hard work and argument. With the tools of mathematics in hand, you can understand the world in a deeper, sounder, and more meaningful way. -- Jordan Ellenberg famous Mathematician

    There is a sense of power connected with such calculations which is hard to explain but which somehow involves a mental encompassing of the world. For instance, Archimedes once said give me a lever long enough to stand on and I can lift the world. A modern day Archimedian question might be one that Donald Knuth poses is how many little cubes 10-13 centimeters in diameter (1/10 the diameter of these nucleons) would fit into the universe.


    ...
    One rarely discussed consequence of innumeracy is its link with belief in pseudoscience .... In a society where genetic engineering, laser technology, and microchip circuits etc.. are daily adding to our understanding of the world, it's especially sad that a significant portion of our adult population still believes in Tarot cards, channeling mediums, and crystal power.

    Even more ominous is the gap between scientists' assessments of various risks and the popular perceptions of those risks, a gap that threatens eventually to lead either to unfounded and crippling anxieties or to impossible and economically paralyzing demands for risk-free guarantees.

    Politicians are seldom a help in this regard since they deal with public opinion and are therefore loath to clarify the likely hazards and trade-offs associated with almost any policy.
    ...

    --John Allen Paulos famous mathematician

    Bro, you are supremely ignorant with your head up your ass. People try to elucidate shit for you here in various different ways but your supreme pigheadedness rules over you in a detrimental fashion supreme.

    Not really, but you have seen "A Beautiful Mind" one too many times.

    "A Beautiful Mind" is about mental illness. Aronofsky's "PI" is a closer fit when it comes to the obsessions of Mathematicians.

    You had obligations and responsabilties from the job that you couldn't assume fully.

    Would you employ a plumber after he tells you he is too afraid to do the job you offered him?
    Be happy they offered you another position instead of firing you.

    You have a job, and you are hard working, that deserves respect and not it is not low IQ. It has nothing to do with IQ. But I think it would be better for you if you had a another job, where you can be more creative and live your full potential and also earn more. I guess you dont make much money.

    Not necessarily. Its a job for people with no skills or credentials or connections.
    Its a skillless job anyone can do.
    Probably would drain your soul day by day doing same boring lowly stuff.
    But people have to do what they have to , to survive. You're low IQ more likely if you stay there and get nothing better for most of your life. Sometimes you find highly skilled people even falling back to menial jobs like this because they lost a previous job that payed much better. But sometime soon they recover.

    Try learning a technical skill if you can.
    Learn about some aspect of technology.

    But what's even worse than doing a menial task for a living is having to waste your brain power and creativity on your job.
    Plus, there's absolutely no guarantee that learning a technology, even coding, will help find suitable or reasonably compensatory employment.
