Guess we all have different everyday life and references. The lifetime dream for one is routine work for the other. So, have a guess, what’s the profession of my friend who gave me one of the best quotes last year?
In Swedish: “Sen har vi byggt klart en ny väg upp till nya garaget vid sommarstugan. Hyrde en minilastare med grusskopa och det var ju bland det roligaste man kört på länge!”
Or roughly translated to: “Also finished the new gravel road to the summerhouse. Rented one of these bobcats, which was one of the coolest things I’ve driven for ages.”
Yup, spot on, good guess! That was my friend the jet fighter pilot, commenting on what he’d spent one of the weekends in July with. Guess many of us would swap with him any day to have his “just another day at the office” reference system. But it’s all relative isn’t it, and I guess that’s the beauty of it. Sorry Captain Carlsson, but can’t help smiling every time I think about how happy you looked when telling me about the bobcat.
