Somewhat less than a thousand words

[andrewducker]

At a company thingy a few months back we had to do a text portrait of courselves.  Coming up with three words/phrases that we thought that our family/friends would use to describe us, that we'd use to describe ourselves, and our colleagues would use to describe us.  Having just bumped into the folder from the event, I'm sharing it with you.  And there's nothing you can do about it!

Family/Friends: Supportive, Smart, Easily Distracted
Self: Intelligent, Geeky, Easily Frustrated
Colleagues: Smart, Enthusiastic, Loose Cannon (this third one from when I grabbed a couple of colleagues at a coffee break and asked them)

All of which sums me up pretty well - I'm smart, lazy and impatient - I hate things that make life harder, I want to make them better, and I get fed up and bored if I'm stuck with them.  Oh, and I may well put early versions of things out there before they're as tested as they could be.  Still, as they say: release early, go do something else instead.
