No disrespect intended!

Lets not blow this out of proportion here.
so sorry did not mean to offend any of you
I too have a family, except unlike you I am just learning, trying to find
work in this field after 18 years of back breaking construction work I

am just looking to learn not offend people
I know this project is close to your hearts,  I want to learn too,
