    There was a building site next to our office and I stood at the window and watched the workers. A colleague walked up next to me. We stood there in silence for a while.

    Me: “Sometimes I wonder if I should just fuck it all and become a gardener.”

    Him: “Me too.”

    Me: “I’m serious.”

    Him: “Me too.”

    We briefly looked at each other with expressionless faces. In silence we watched some more. Then we went to the next meeting.

    True story™.

      I always thought about going to be a farmer. Then I watched some videos from farmers and realized they are also engineers.
