My boring super power isn't something I can monetize, but it's useful regularly: being able to pick the best sized Tupperware container to put leftovers in.

Heh, my wife went through the drawer a few years ago and threw away all the containers that didn't have lids, and lids without containers. I was amazed at how many there were. Not sure how that happens. Must be with the missing socks.

that's on the fly volume calculation. very useful for when you have to pack a truck.
also helps if you have some Tetris experience. so def monetizeable

Funny, I just had to help someone pack a house into one of those POD things and they ended up saying, "You're better at this, you say what goes where."

I don't think I'm as good at it with really large volumes, but the storage container thing is pretty handy.

I went to college with a guy who was paid very well for figuring out the most efficient way to load a freighter. This was before computers were in common use. Also, never bet money on a chess game with him.

I'd like that skill!
