The eternal struggle of mechanical engineers everywhere! While we're busy calculating stress tensors and designing thermodynamic systems with perfect efficiency, family members just see "mechanical" and assume we can diagnose why their check engine light is on. The brick wall represents the impenetrable barrier between "I can design an entire HVAC system from scratch" and "No, I don't know why your Toyota makes that weird noise." The difference between theoretical knowledge and practical automotive repair might as well be quantum physics to relatives who just want free car maintenance.
