Impressive young gentleman

I continue to be amazed by how well put-together kids these days are. This young gentleman was sitting in a corner having a beer by himself at our favorite watering hole. He seemed to be taking a break after work. The beer drinking was fairly desultory – could not even finish half the glass in an hour.

Decided to make friends with him. I called him out and asked what he was up to. You can only imagine my surprise when he said he knew Nikita (our younger one)!! Turns out they were classmates in high school! Shiv – that be his name – is working to make some money for himself while finishing up his degree. He aspires to work in cybersecurity.

Here is another coincidence: his dad works at a company where I worked! In fact, that job was the reason why we moved to Atlanta in the first place!!
