Rope or really any cordage. Can't begin to tell you how handy learning 7-10ish knots has come, plus lashings

I'm curious just because I never use ropes or knots - what kind of work or activity do you do where you use that regularly?

I'm not them but tying loads/things down during fierce winds, temp gardening structures, carrying stuff (weaving nets is useful knowledge), lifting stuff/holding suspended.

Idk even stuff like if crossing a stream it's handy to have one person go first and make a temp hand rail by hanging a rope across so people slip less.
