One of my high school friends couldn't decide between art and electrical
engineering as a major. He chose EE. He was super-smart academically but
he could not design anything or repair anything, it just wasn't his forte.

So, which branch of government did he enter, then?

He went to work for a defense contractor in Southern California. I don't
know what his job was but there were probably analytical jobs that
didn't involve actual design.
