Special Ops Engineering: auf der Schweiz

This week, I am in Switzerland for work. I arrived very early Monday, and found my way to my hotel -- via two trains, and a half-km walk. That afternoon, a colleague and I went on a 5km walk about, up along the river and through the old city, and then ducked into a pub for dinner. The next day was all sightseeing (and walking), and then a short nap, followed by more sight-seeing! Today we actually had to go to work.

I take the S7 train two stops from Stadelhofen to Uetikon, and then it's a 10min walk to the building. Everyone is really friendly, and the city is super clean and efficient. Our course is pretty interesting, too, which is the real reason that work sent me out here. I'm becoming an "expert" at something... which seems to be mostly about looking at edge cases, and trying to figure out how to troubleshoot more efficiently and get ahead of what's coming down the pike before our Sales people sell it.

And I wasn't the first person in class to be told This is impossible. So... win?

More stories later. I have to walk back to the Old City to meet everyone for dinner. (Add 9hrs to the time stamp of this post for Zürich local time).
