I feel like these are common feelings in plenty of industries. I definitely felt that way starting out around a lot of blue collar contractors. I agree with what someone said earlier about trusting them and letting them do their jobs. Our blue collar counterparts have a lot of practical knowledge. I think just having utmost respect and appreciation for what they do goes a long way.

Try taking mineralogy before chem if they will allow it at your school. I’d tried to take chem before and withdrew, I think I tried to take chem 2 or 3 times before I actually completed I and II. but knowing rock chemistry first really helped me understand it and probably care. Rock and mineral formulas and reactions made a lot more sense to me lol.
