With 89% of Canadians Online in a country of 37 million people, I should have no problem getting 1 million of my fellow Canadians on Steemit this year!! Like they say, Go Big or Go Home!
Well, it's exciting to be using a real web application on top of the the STEEM blockchain. Don't get me wrong, I love reading ICO roadmaps! How everyone and their grandma is going to disrupt pretty much every business model ever built with a new spin on the decentralized network. Power to the people!
STEEM and STEEMIT was the one, two punch that sold me on what decentralized networks applications can bring to the real world. Thank you for the show and tell!! I ready to kick this MOFO introduction into space! (Is there a STEEM node on the ISS? if not, we should definitely add that to the bucket list for STEEM)
I'm here to learn from YOU the SteemIt community! Share my life experiences, advice and opinions based on my first 40 years on this wonderful planet. Can't wait to kick off the next 40 years in 2018!
You can look me up on LinkedIn, if you want to know about me and what I have been up to in my work life;
Top 10 things I have had the privilege to LEARN or DO or in my life that you can ask me about
- Born in Poland (My parents did the DO on this one), want to know more about my homeland just ask?
- Lived in Spain ask a kid, si hablo Espanol! My vocab comes back quickly after a couple of beers, so give me a heads up if you plan to ask me to review your kids Spanish homework.
- Live in Canada, my home base since 1990. Glad my parents decided on Canada, it's been amazing!
- Helped my father start his woodworking company with one table saw and some hand tools (that was a fun bootstrap experience) , I spent the summers working for him during my university. Yes, I can give some advice on building a dream kitchen for your better half or you can call my dad on skype :)
- Helped my mom start her restaurant, she needed more than a knife and fork to do that :) but after 15+ years in business she convinced half the city to try Polish food. Worked for her during my lunch hour break from the woodworking shop. Had to earn my lunch :)
- Graduated from University of Western Ontario with a Computer Science degree in 2001, my mother put my name up on her restaurant menu as available for hire and the rest is history! She helped me get my 1st job at a really amazing company called Liberate Technologies, the HR person loved to eat Polish pierogies at her place :). Thank you Wendy Thompson for giving me the opportunity to join a great company!
- I married the love of my life in 2003, 15 years coming up in 2018! No I'm not giving marriage advice!
- I love to travel and meet people anywhere in the world. My travel bucket list is a mile long, I have been lucky to visit Asia (Japan, Thailand), Europe, Russia, UK, South America. Need travel tips on travelling with young kids, I'm here for you 100%! or you can follow my wife's blog. No, she's not on SteemIt yet!! Have to figure out the wordpress plugin for SteemIt first!
- I gave into my friends peer pressure of starting a family in 2013, held out as long as I could ;). Now I regret not starting sooner, wonderful experience but I will need advice from You in this area from time to time.
- I have had the privilege to work and collaborate with some amazing people in the technology field of Cable TV and Digital Signage networks in the last 17 years. I will definitely write about my work and share my experiences.
All right that's a wrap, Dysko out!
Sound like a great goal to accomplish! I will add myself to your followers, Even though I'm not Canadian, as I wish you good luck!
