  • My area was hit by a derecho about 5 years back. We had 140+mph straight line winds for about an hour straight, and it devastated the area. A huge percentage of old growth trees got snapped like toothpicks. A couple years after, the city planted trees in all of the easement for a good portion of the residential area. Had to have been thousands of trees. I got 6 because I’m on a corner.

    So my answer is have mother nature tear everything down then they may just do it.




  • I’ve gone being the smartest person in the room in my previous couple roles (mostly because I was the only person with any IT or platform knowledge, not because I’m some prodigy) to the bottom of the totem pole and well behind the intelligence of my current team since I changed careers.

    It’s wonderful having people around that are smarter than me that I can learn from and ask questions to. It’s hard being the idiot on a team when you’re trying to improve and care about your work. Working with idiots that don’t care or seemingly never improve is the worst. I’ve learned more over the past 8 months than I have since I started my professional career.

    I like the phrase, “Never be the smartest person in the room”. Sometimes it happens, but in most situations, there is someone else that is more knowledgeable about something than you, and that’s an opportunity to learn.
