I graduated as a Telecommunication engineer at the height of the global financial crisis. Life told me I had to adapt quickly. Within a month, I learned the basics of SQL and got a starting position at my first job out of 12 people with university diplomas related to SQL. Unfortunately, that company failed. I need to adapt again. Another starting position. Within a month, I discovered that company was losing 100K euros a month with its bad DB design. In 3 months, I was leading a team of 6 workers in a vast dirty data-matching project which resulted in cleaning out more than 20K customers. Within six months, the project was over successfully. A few years later, my family suffered a financial crisis, and my job couldn't pay for it. Adapt again. I went with my wife to work as a bartender/bar waiter on a cruise ship without ever holding a waiter's tray in my hands. In my last year on the ship, the bar I was managing and bartending at was rated first in the fleet of 27 cruisers for most of my stay there. Going back home, I decide to live in nature. Clean air, fresh water, and food. Adapt again. Within a few months started working remotely, and I am now building reports using SQL that is changing dynamically with clients' needs. At the same time, I manage the infrastructure cost to make the insights I provide cheaper, even than what most popular BI software offers. No matter what is thrown at me, I will turn it around into a beautiful experience for myself, and my clients.
