“I am so uninteresting that I need help from the internet to conjure up a fun fact about myself “

You’re a consultant and can’t answer something as trivial as this? I guess they don’t make them like they used to.

Tell them you like to study paranormal phenomena such as Bigfoot sightings, alien abductions, crop circles and why companies continue to pay consultancy fee despite them not being creative enough to pen a simple story.

Did you know that in the US that only about 50% of murders are solved?

And if you take the average IQ and impulsive nature of most murders...

It's not really that hard to get away with murder.

That number drops way lower if you murder someone with no connections to you and have no prior convictions.

No suspects, no witnesses, no motives, no chance.

The intent of this question is just to humanize everyone to each other. Your answer doesn’t have to be impressive or funny or surprising, just anything that’s outside of being a worker bee. Like, you never had a pet, or you used to have a pet and here’s a picture.

Fun fact doesn’t have to be fun to you. It can be any boring fact about you.

Deffo recommend trying it!

Anyone have any idea when the hiring freeze might end within AWS ProServ? I’m currently at Amazon and have a TS clearance, PMP & CSM.

Instead of leaving, I’d love to go back to my “consulting roots” and join the ProServ team. I’m taking my AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner exam next weekend. Hoping this freeze is lifted soon.
