Something Extraordinary About You?

serverbear

Purpose of this thread, tell LET something extraordinary about you that they don't know.

Could be some sort of achievement, something you excel in, whatever you want.

I'll start - I used to be a DJ/Music Producer, I've released over 15 tracks in the past & have had the likes of Digweed/Sasha/Hybrid play my music (if you know who they are).

When I'm not fiddling around with servers, I'm usually out flying to get my Private Pilot's License. Eventually going to get enough cash to train up and fly the big jets; anyone fancy lending me $80,00? :)

My name is Marc and I own VPS Node Box. Since I've found this community I fell in love with it. I have an obsessive compulsive personality and I am a perfectionist. The good thing about this is that I succeed at almost everything I try, the bad thing is that I overwork myself and it consumes me. However at the end of the day positive results make me feel good about the work that I do, and it makes me happy if I can make someone else happy, even a complete stranger that I have never met.

I know how to sew clothes using sewing machine. I know how to cut some of my personal clothes for home use.

Started a software shop with colleagues in 2007 fulltime (http://brewsoftcorp.com/) but due to financial crisis during those years, were forced to do any job that will pay (java, php, c++)

@jcaleb Sewing takes patience and skill. So does coding. Congrats on your skills :)

jcaleb

thanks man! sewing takes a lot from your back. i can only do it for 2 hours at a time. i admire those who do it fulltime

@jcaleb Both my grandmothers did it allot, and mostly without a machine :) @MikHo Yes, but it's fulfilling, isn't it? :)

A great relative of mine was once the cup bearer to the royal family.

I was featured in a 4 page spread in a magazine.

My mother said something and it was used as an out of context quote by the local newspaper, a school riot ensued and the kids started talking shit about me - my solution was to go all political on their ass and within 3 lessons and a lunch I felt like I was running for president.

AGE 11.

True story.

I'm the only long-time lowendtalk member who has never cussed at another member, talked bad about someone, or got in a fight. Though, I suppose there is a first time for everything.

It doesn't seem like much, but I like to find solutions rather than cause problems. To that end I've authored over 30 open source projects followed by hundreds of developers and run two tutorial sites.

So why did I just write this? Am I just trying to look good here?

A lot of people just accept their unhelpful attitudes as normal - and even acceptable. I want people to see that we can help each other and there isn't a need for some of the strife that goes on a day-by-day basis. If I can manage to hold my tongue once in a while, you can too.

In the end it's more helpful, yet often tougher to do this than the more impressive feats we do.
Because being nice and helpful doesn't get you fanfare.
