I'm quite good at getting Macs to do the stuff I need them to. The vast majority of people alive right now will have never touched one for a number of reasons, so I guess I'm above average at it. I can easily patch old ones with Opencore these days.

I know more about radio and podcast production than the average person, given that I have a degree in it. Not that I was ever successful in that field, but I know how to do it to a high standard.

I'm also really good at guessing the year when radio shows do a guess the year competition. I listened to a lot of pop radio from about 1985 to 2010, so can usually place myself to when a song was popular.

Time management.

Ive become a fucking pro at squeezing as many tasks into a day as I possibly can. I frequently get told they have no idea how I keep on top of things. I basically work 2 and a half full time jobs for people at the same company, and I accomplish it by overlapping my time and billing per item not per hour
