You reply in the comments, and i try to guess your age based on a short conversation we have. That's it!

Okay, how thoughtful hehe. In what way do you wish to make an impact either in a field or to people around you, and are you actually moving towards it?

I help software professionals make sense of and make peace with the dysfunction in their workplace. And I believe I'm doing that fairly well.

Oh, so like an organizational consultant. That's nice. How long have you been doing it for?

[–] jbrains@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It seems like an answer to that question risks rather trivially giving away my age, so I won't answer that one. 😉

Oh come on man😅. That ain't fair. I need something to go off of. Okay, do you travel a lot? And if you do, tell me some of the places you've been to

[–] jbrains@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I travel a lot now. I traveled a lot in the past. I travel across Canada now and I traveled around Europe in the past. I have traveled a lot between Munich and the western Russia border.

I lived for three months in Reykjavík, for three months in Mazatlán, and for parts of a few years I lived a few months per year in Stockholm.

Ok, i think i have an age in mind. You haven't given me much to go on, but i have a hunch you might be in your 50s. Maybe 51?

[–] jbrains@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Close enough. I made it too easy for you. 👍

[–] GrammarPolice@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

No you didn't make it easy for me😂. You didn't even answer one of the questions that would've made it easy. Although i guess your not answering kinda gave me a clue too. Anyways, thanks for playing:D
