When I was in high school, we had a hands-on project in geometry for making nets, which is the name of the geometrical outline of a box when disassembled and laid flat [0]. I remember my teacher saying that if you wanted to make it big with geometry, you should go into the business of making nets for retail companies. All these years later I can see the wisdom.
