Hey mate, my week's been great. I've just been brushing up on my Excel skills for my upcoming internship.
How's your week been?
Not great, got my first speeding ticket over the weekend. It was a tiny town in the middle of a highway. I strongly suspect that town gets a lot of its income from speeding tickets in a section where they rapidly lower the speed limit to 25 (4 lane road).
So I'm still seething about that.
25mph speed limit? That is incredibly low. Definitely something shady going on there.
What do you do for a living?
Yeah, 25, all the way from 65.
I'm a data engineer.
How's that going for you? Are you satisfied with your job?
Yeah, it's been good so far. The best part is that it's remote.
Oh that's the jackpot. How long have you been doing it for?
About a year
Interesting. So tell me more about yourself outside your job and getting speed tickets. Are you more introverted or extroverted?
