I’d like to learn what people in their field think of when they see something good or bad when they’re not working.
I’m a health inspector, so when I am sitting at a table as a customer, I’ll watch people while I’m eating (not purposely staring, but having a look around the place). I recently saw someone swipe their finger under their nose then go to the self serve station to touch about 8 different handles before walking away. Thankfully, I was already done eating.
When I have to walk through the kitchen to the toilets, I take mental notes without meaning to.
As a ex-first responder, unconsciously doing an assessment of someone I’m speaking to (or not) and internally noting how nice and juicy their veins are.
What are some things you come across in your daily life and what do they have you thinking about?
I’ve no experience in your industry or know anyone in it, but I find it so interesting. Thank you for sharing!
Mildly related (maybe not), I have had friends who recommend certain medical shows to me to watch. I have given them a try, but then I get bogged down by how overdramatised they are with the music, and “Um… They’re not going to revive anyone with those weak compressions.”
In my last 3 years of highschool I had a class that taught the basics if law. All in all it was a great class, that taught me a lot of valuable information, but it also absolutely ruined every depiction of court trials in movies and TV, since I now know what it looks like in reality.
