He wakes up early in the morning. You are wrong if you think he'll fall into the category of "early to bed, early to rise". "Working" is the theme of his life. Actually, you can look at him as a young, handsome man with a generous dose of sensitivity, sensibility and a sheer passion to find something to do, every second of his waking hours.
He grabs his morning cup of tea and no, he doesn't watch "Good Morning America" or read the wall street joural (he subscribes for it and reads it in the loo!)while sipping his tea. He heads into the backyard and attempts to make some minute but needed changes. The cactuses are replanted, the roses pruned or the weeds pulled. He fertilises the lawn, feeds the shrubs or sweeps the concrete. No no, he's not a gardener, he's just passionate about gardening.
He comes in. cleans his cup 99% of the time. He grabs a paper towel and tries to clean the sink. He casually reaches for the surface cleaner, sprays it on the island and makes sure the grout is as clean as it was when he bought his house. He wipes the wooden floor, takes the garbage out, cleans and scrubs his tub every other day, washes and irons his towels like a pro, makes sure the mirror above the sink doesnt have any splashes from his brushing or shaving. He dusts the railings and blinds, vaccums the carpet, mops the floors and polishes the cabinets. His front porch is always immaculate, his clothes are always pressed though his toilet seat is not always down. He is not a house keeper, but he is just pasionate about housekeeping.
He works with computers. He develops programs, writes user guides, designs graphics, manages people over the phone, works odd hours to co ordinate with his off shore team mates, stretches his limits, meets deadlines, makes presentaions and plays clean politics. He finds time to educate all and sundry about the latest developments in his field, counsels techie wannabes, boosts ambitions, forwards resumes and sometimes ends up helping the resumes find a suitable job. He is definitely not a robot, he is just a workaholic.
