Boxed
I found two eerily accurate descriptions of…me.
Do you know any programmers that exhibit these personality traits?
How to get the most out of your eccentric programmer/”genius”
I don’t consider myself a “genius”, but a lot of those pieces does ring true. I can become downright obsessive about something, especially if I am learning a new skill or technology. Maybe that’s why grad school didn’t work out so well? I’m not so much interested in learning about the world, as I am in learning how to build things that will change it. Well, something like that.
But I just don’t see you as a messy person. Yes you are very detail oriented and great on working on a single task. But messy? That doesn’t seem you although I didn’t get to see your place the last time I was out. Hope things are going well.
Oh dear, I am actually a pretty messy person. I do clean up every once in a while, but in that “sweep everything into a “miscellaneous” box” style rather than the “everything has a place” style. I keep trying to get to the latter, but I just have my fingers in too many different pies. Or something.
