We all know how we live like kings compared to the average 40k citizens but are there any opposite exceptions?

Sorry for the unusual request, but I've been nostalgic lately and feel so sad about the lost days in my childhood where my parents prepared lunch for kid me, but of course, that is no longer possible since I'm an adult, and my dad is gone and my mom isn't able. I usually prep my own food just fine most of the time, but it just isn't the same.

I just want that mom and pop vibe for a one and done deal. Not restaurant food or food prepared with no care and passion. I know this sounds a bit weird but I just wanna experience it once as an adult again.

Hopefully this makes sense.

Edit: I'm not gonna let someone into my home. I'll always do pickup the food.

Not just disturbing or dark, more so gross and nasty. Just curious to see what kind of squalor is common in the 40k verse.

Example: What kind of gross things do people on hive worlds have to do? What about gross things Space Marines have to do or go through?

Knew I would be somewhat rusty after not touching the wheel for almost a decade but my dumbass thought there was a chance I could pick it up quick since I've been around and observing a defensive driver for years, watched so many videos and studied traffic rules for so long.

Nope.

I fucking struggled with the core beginner skill of TURNING. And my instructor, bless him, was patient as he could be.

I was always doing something wrong, whether I wasn't accelerating during the turn or doing too much accelerating. Or that i held the wheel too long or didn't turn it all the way. Or that I didn't do the hand over hand technique he taught me. If there was a potential fuck up, I did it. I almost hit a mailbox and almost hit someone's car, for goodness sake. I was doing shit I wasn't doing as a teenager.

I struggled with basic multitasking and that fucking sucks.

I have inattentive ADHD and anxiety, so those are nasty recipes for disaster when learning to drive.

At the end of the lesson, my instructor was nice but honest with me: he didn't feel comfortable continuing to take me out on the road when I struggled so much with turning. He told me to have my mom take me to an empty parking lot to practice turning for at least an hour and to only call him back when I learned how to turn efficiently.

I don't think I'm totally helpless, but I feel like it will take me a very long time (perhaps years) to even be half-competent at driving.

This is so awful since I do need to drive and I've been paying out the ass for rideshare since my job forced RTO on me. I've been avoiding it like a fucking idiot, but I can't anymore. I know I still gained some experience yesterday, but I have to be more consistent than the average person learning how to drive because I know I will lose the little experience I gained.

Curious to see if Reddit can give me honest advice about driving going forth.
