I was a heating engeneer and liked it but during the winter it was so freaking cold, I couldn't feel my feet. That's when I decided I needed a job which can be done in an office where it is warm during the winter.

I went back to school, made a website with Frontpage for my first band (when I was 22 or something), that got me interested in computers. I self learned webstuff, later landed a job in web but decided to study computer science at a university to trully understand what I was doing. Now I am a Linux programmer in the car industry.

So basically I got cold feet.
