Apolytoner's Talents and Professions

[Sikander]

"Profession": I work in a hospital I.S. department on the night shift, which means that I cover the bases for the 25 people who work here during the day. What this really means is that I get to surf the net and read a lot for a decent wage.

Talents:

I'm a generalist who is capable of having fascinating conversations with a wide variety of very educated / talented people despite my own rather limited formal education.

I'm a good leader, athlete, board game player, card game player, fighter, actor, counselor.

[Daz]

P: Project manager- Building & Infrastructure

T: Physical labor, patience with children (and boy do I need that one)

And general tinkering and purchasing on sale computer hardware. Oh, and taking lots of irritating medications on a rigid schedule.

Talent- swearing.

With all due respect Laz I really doubt that your swearing skills will be even close to the average Serb or Bulgarian.

Vulgarian?

And don't worry Sikander, believe it or not your ignorance and lack of education always shines through in the end
