Thanks Ola!

And I
think they're good questions! I didn't edit a thing!

I agree :-)

1.What is the feature you like yourself for most?

Being a good listener, my sense of humour and getting drunk after a ridiculously small amount of alcohol - all that makes me a perfect date :D
2.It is said that we learn from our own mistakes. Is there any area in which you keep making the same mistakes? What is it?

Yeah, the relationship with my parents. We keep on underestimating our abilities to piss each other off :D.
3.Have you ever bribed or been bribed? If the answer is yes, describe the circumstances.

I was ready to bribe a policeman once, but he let me off with a warning. Ever since I've been trying to break the law at every occasion to see if bribing is as much fun as they say, but alas...
4.Imagine you’re an employer. What is the thing you would definitely fire your employee for?

Jerking off to my coffee cup?...
5.What is your all-time favourite movie scene?

'Victims are we all'

...and a few more with Brandon :-)

Thank you, Ola.
1.What is the feature you like yourself for most?
My dad.
2.Is there any area in which you keep making the same mistakes?
I'm picking my head up too quick in my sprints.
3.Have you ever bribed or been bribed?
Negative.
4.Imagine you’re an employer. What is the thing you would definitely fire your employee for?
Syphilis. :)

Seriously, I don't imagine it. I don't do business that way, and can't relate to the hiring/firing values of large business organizations. If a man couldn't fix my boat right or balance my tax debt or whatever else we work it out. I know it's not that easy in most ways of life.
5.What is your all-time favourite movie scene?
Hmm. I can't name one. One of those that made me laugh, no doubt. (Lately I haven't been watching enough movies, unfortunately).

1.What is the feature you like yourself for most?
Feature as in a characteristic? creativity
Feature as in physical appearance? don't care
2.It is said that we learn from our own mistakes. Is there any area in which you keep making the same mistakes? What is it?
Firstly I fully and completely agree with it! We learn from OUR mistakes and not from other people's mistakes. Secondly, well, booze is not good for you in big quantities...

Is a bottle of good wine a bribe? It is? Shit, I'm cheap.
4.Imagine you’re an employer. What is the thing you would definitely fire your employee for?
Bribing a competitor AND getting caught!

But seriously, disclosing company's secrets. In my industry they're worth millions.
5.What is your all-time favourite movie scene?
Too many to pick one. Pacino in the final scene of "The devil's advocate" is one that leaps to mind immediately, though.
