Distrust of Psychology and a fan of satire. I love a good joke and contradict myself. Somewhat serious but easily distracted.

What are you gonna put on your resume 20 years later when you're not hot anymore and need a real job?
@thor You could probably work off shore.

It's hard to find a trade job that suits a middle-aged tall guy with a dad bod, no agility and a fear of heights.
I wouldn't be a good welder, electrician, plumber or fitter. You need to crawl and climb all over the place in jobs like that.
I looked into what they expect computer guys in the rail industry. They have formal requirements. It's not like in the IT industry where you just have to be a geek. You have to go to trade school and learn digital electronics there.
If I'm going to school, it needs to be for something new though. Maybe CNC operator or some other kind of metalwork or woodwork that you can do on a table.
@thor I loved CNC machining when I did it as a teen. We only did hard code and didn't make use of the specialized software for that.

@freemo Vitamins kill children because of the iron content. Sodium and Lithium are likely worse.

Iron is surprisingly lethal for such a common metal. Takes about 8 to 10 grams to kill a full grown adult.

What is your favorite non-nonsensical compass direction?
@thor I knew a Norwegian family in the US and the father was an engineer for a Norwegian oil company. He was paid well and the company didn't seem too bad. They did send him from Norway to a humid subtropical climate but that's the only bad thing I can recall.

Had a voice call with a tradesman. He told me should use my IT skills on oil platforms, since Norway has a lot of those. I mean, it makes sense. I want to go out there and we have all these oil platforms, and I know IT. I'm too stupid to know what to go for so I have to ask...
