I’m 35, but I had a junior SA approach me looking for tasks (though he is not even on my team) and I had nothing for him. So he asked if I had any advice for a 23 year old and all I could think to tell him was “Floss every day”.

Any of you guys got good advice for a young person just starting out in life?

    Don’t be hard on yourself in your twenties. Try to live with perspective that in your 30s you’ll thank yourself for your own kindness to yourself in your younger years. Mistakes happen, the point is to learn from them and allow yourself to grow. Also, have fun and make memories and always take pictures.

      100% take pictures. It’s amazing how much you’ll forget over time, and seeing photos of your old place, friends, things you did, etc. brings it all back to life again.

      Related, but back up your stuff. Don’t keep 3 years of photos on your phone. Dump them to a disk you own and practice 3-2-1 backups.
