Yeah. Okay. So this one's called peanut people. Hello, all sort of day one listener. I started from the beginning in 2018. So whatever that is. Yeah. You asked for weird childhood hobbies. And I remembered mine that I think helped me figure out my career path. When I was around eight, we had this big plastic jar of shell on peanuts. It was old and stale and needed to get thrown out.

Kind of like those big tins of popcorn that everyone got for Christmas that eventually got emptied out and turned into trash cans. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I'm not sure exactly how it happened, but I was feeling crafty one day and I took the peanuts and started drawing faces on them. It started off as a bit of a joke.

It became a peanut village.

As I found out in 2018 at one of my first internships, the job is like any and can get pretty boring.
