   After four years someone finally noticed and appreciated my joke of putting a business card with "CTO" as my title on my office locker.

     @hypolite Because I'm two levels below CTO in this company. The business card is from my own business, where I can invent whatever titles I want.

     @hypolite The business is resting since I started this full-time job.
     
     I was doing part-time software contracting before, first remote for my Swedish ex-employers, both in 2010 and in 2017, then for local clients that I found through neighbors and meetups.
     
     In 2010–2013 we also imported and sold Swedish baby formula through the business. It was break-even at best if you don't count my time, but it was an interesting experience and I learned accounting from it.

     @notclacke Neat! What’s your own business? I feel like it’s the first time I’m hearing about it.
