  • I’m also very much organized chaos. My wife will “helpfully” put things “where they go”. She hasn’t yet (in nearly 20 years…) figured out that if it’s mine “where it goes” is “where I put it”. I’m generally consistent with where I put things, but there’s little reason to any particular place for things.


  • I just have a rule that I don’t let things be disgusting.

    Some people who spend their entire waking hours cleaning believe exactly the same as you. They just have different thresholds of “disgusting”. My in-laws are like that. I’m much closer to you; where I can easily accept untidy, but not dirty.







  • I don’t think you were hostile, you just have a different experience than others in this thread. At my workplace we design hardware and make embedded systems. Depending on which part of the system you’re working on you’ll either never leave Visual Studio or exclusively use the unix command line. Both groups are absolutely serious professionals. Not every workplace is like mine; most will have only one of the two groups.
