About me

Using know­ledge disco­ve­red by I. Myers

Acci­den­tal IT technician.

Keep IT SimpleIt’s not me who turns aro­und when they shout „IT guy”. At par­ties I play dumb. When I’m being asked to cast an eye over a com­pu­ter, my reply is I’ve been tau­ght to fix TVs. When I’m mole­sted to disas­sem­ble and repair a TV, I dec­lare pro­gram­ming a remote is as far as I can go. When I’m pin­ned to fix Outlook, I will slink away with an excuse I have an OSX. It doesn’t change the fact, that as a result of my fasci­na­tion with a book on PHP, a few years ago one of the very first CMS sys­tems was deve­lo­ped, which is still used by a respec­ta­ble cor­po­ra­tion. I also know the feel of spen­ding a night over a com­pu­ter, but rumor has it all intro­verts like it. Here you can find some facts about my pro­fes­sio­nal life.

Mr. Idea – visions and revisions

bulbHead full of ideas. Some bet­ter than other. One in 10 ideas gives me shi­vers, both in terms of a con­cept and finan­cial pro­fits. One in 20 con­sti­tu­tes almost a stroke threat, nevertheless it ends up buried deep in a dra­wer, as it makes people laugh. Let me browse a sub­ject for 5 minu­tes and I’ll quic­kly start indi­ca­ting neces­sary impro­ve­ments. You’ve alre­ady lear­ned the obvious , the rest you’ll see thro­ugh my eyes. Not in vain did the Good Lord bestow intu­itive per­cep­tion on me.

Inspi­rer & ring-​leader

SeederI fill minds with visions too daring to be dre­amt. I con­nect your bat­te­ries to my mind’s power plant and watch with deli­ght how the “rece­ivers” ema­nate with pro­fes­sio­nal or per­so­nal fulfillment. Undoubtedly, I inspire acti­vity. I find posi­ti­ves that you would never think of. I track a nar­row path leading to a six-​lane high­way. I love dra­wing out of people what’s best in them, obse­rving how they push for­ward aga­inst all odds.

Advi­sor of cho­ice… your cho­ice, not mine.

compassAnd what do you think…? This question is repe­ated with various fre­qu­ency and in various ways. For vague reasons folks want to know my opi­nion on dif­fe­rent mat­ters. This obvio­usly does not mean they will put my advise into action. But, even­tu­ally, an advi­sor is expec­ted to pre­sent possi­bi­li­ties, give recom­men­da­tions, sug­gest the best options and leave space for own cho­ice. I’m not really sur­pri­sed that 99% of advi­sors have an NF or NT in their type.

Pho­to­gra­pher undisclosed.

me-photoHold on, why is this pic­ture so blur­red? It is scien­ti­fi­cally pro­ven that sharp object can hurt you. I doubt my pho­tos shall ever be as sharp as a razor blade, but occa­sio­nally I start to notice how impor­tant it is to turn on image sta­bi­lity or place the equ­ip­ment on tri­pod. Pho­to­gra­phy only recen­tly has appe­ared in my life and it intends to stay. Isa­bel says this means the deve­lop­ment of ter­tiary func­tion and I’m not gonna argue with her, as she’s bet­ter edu­ca­ted. Here you can find some more infor­ma­tion about my photography.

Thief by practice.

timeI steal in a skil­led and unno­ti­ce­able man­ner. I’m not inte­re­sted in trivia; I reach for the most valu­able. In no time will you notice than an hour is gone, after­noon has pas­sed or the day is lost fore­ver. Inte­re­stin­gly, there is no need to call the police. To me time has always been an inac­cu­rate and fluc­tu­ating idea, and deadli­nes were asso­cia­ted with final judg­ment only. This, howe­ver, does not mean I can’t meet them. It is just a question of priority.
