- Please tell us your name and what you do here at Equaleyes (and how long you have worked here)?
My name is Adel, and I have been working as a mobile developer in Equaleyes for almost five years.
- What do you like to do for fun?
After a long day of work, I like to go jogging or to a fitness class. I also like to work on my own projects.
- What’s your earliest childhood memory?
When I was seven years old, I fell from the bed while I was sleeping… That’s it, no deeper meaning behind the memory. I fell from the bed, and I guess I didn’t like it so much that the memory has persisted for 19 years now.
- What is the best piece of advice your mom or dad gave you?
All of their finance-related advice, which have proven and are still proving to be extremely useful over the years of my adult life.
- Who do you admire right now and why?
People who don’t give up. Because I know how easy and tempting it is sometimes to just leave everything behind and focus on something else instead, I admire the self-discipline and self-motivation in non-quitters, and I’m doing my best to practice it myself.
- What things do you not like to do?
Having to go to bed early, especially if I’m working on something and I’m on a good roll.
- Everyone has a good app idea. What’s yours?
Nice try 🙂
- What do you think robots dream about?
Zeros and ones, maybe?
- Imagine you were the CEO of a company… What would you make compulsory in the office and what would you definitely ban in the office?
I would ban people from stealing my keyboard while I am away! As far as the compulsory rule goes, maybe having some random rule like Hawaiian Shirt Day each month would lighten up the mood in the office every now and then.
- Best piece of advice you would give someone looking at getting into a technology job?
Get any work experience as soon as you can. You will thank yourself later.
- Tell us your darkest secret; we promise we won’t tell anyone. They’ll read it. (optional)
I don’t really like chocolate so much…
