Geekability <--- How're you doin?

11.637% - geekish tendencies....but I doooo collect bugs....:P

Squiz....

well, if u think that is bad...how abotu this.

Big A went to an IT job interview where they asked him the following,

How many ppl at home, and how many computers??
5 ppls (1 was 1yo) and 7 computers, but am building another 2 as well....why??

They didn't believ him so asked about specs...and he could name it all.

In addition at another interview they asked him 'to solve this problem' and he said flat out that no-one could...because the os system was wrong for application etc ect...apparently guy went out..put in 'patch' Big a wrote, adn their problem was fixed....(systems guy got big kick in butt)

My absolute fav is how at 15yo he created entire computer network for 2 private schools to pay for hsi own tutition, plus brothers and sisters. And it wasn't small network....he still gets calls to patch each year, it is was over 15years ago.

We call him the geek freak.

And whilst he is paid to do it...he just loves it so much, we then 'lose' him to the dungeon 9workshop) each nite for hours.

He has computers, I have the bug.

Plus he has a workshop to die for (so I am told) and he never buys one things...always 4 or 5. he has stilh equipment only for yead (chainsaw blowers mowers etc)

I told him I needed welding done, so he has stick welder adn mig too.

I told him I needed painting done....he has air compressor, with snap on kit, and paint shop pro kits.

If I say this needs doing...well he goes off...researches it for days/week...buys all the qequipment (even if he is only doing it once) and then gets something to test on.

I love him, but man...the GF is into overkill. But at least he has friends who love his tools too.

I think that came out wrong...lol

But honestly I don't care...he makes enough money to pay for his stuff, and there's always some left over for me too. Go the geek freaks!


Cheers
