Name (first name / surname):

Manuel Resch

This is where I originally come from:

From the enchanting Aigen-Schlägl in the district of Rohrbach. Yes, the place really exists and no, it's not a fairytale land.

This is where I live now:

In the vibrant metropolis of Linz, which never sleeps... except between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m., because even Linzers need their beauty sleep.

Marital status:

Single. Yes, that means no better half, but also no socks that suddenly disappear.

With JustLaser since:

05/2024

Position at JustLaser:

Technician. I make things work that I or others have broken. MacGyver would be proud.

What I like about my work at JustLaser,

The moment when the thing finally works again and I feel like a technology Jedi.

A new day begins for me with...

Cozy music and chores. Because nothing spices up the morning mood like a dirty plate.

My strengths include...

Problem-solving skills and an uncanny talent for converting coffee into life energy. Yes, I am a walking chemistry lab assistant.

My biggest weakness is...

Monday morning. And chocolate. Okay, mainly chocolate. Monday mornings with chocolate? Even worse.

My mother calls me...

Manu. Or by my full name if I've done something wrong. Then I know it's getting serious.

What do I like to do in my free time?

Lots of things... concerts, festivals, carpentry, biking, hiking in the mountains, brewing beer, whatever comes into my head. Yes, I have an unstoppable leisure multitool inside me.

The next song in my playlist is...

Nirvana - Come as you are.

Favorite music genre

Rock, indie, metal, actually everything except folk music. Because that's where my tolerance ends.

"Pulp Fiction" - Best scene: John Travolta's dance interlude. Because we all want to dance like that sometimes.

Series: "Breaking Bad". Because I want to know how to make the best of a midlife crisis.

The last book I read...

"The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck" (Mark Manson). A masterpiece of modern philosophy and the art of not getting stressed.

Last vacation destination?

Bella Italia - Florence, Montepulciano, (Tuscany). Where the wine flows and life is dolce vita.

Dream destination?

Hawaii. Because cocktails simply taste better under palm trees. A scientifically proven fact.

Favorite dish?

Tajine, pasta. Because international cuisine makes me a better person.

At the bar I order...

One beer. Simple and effective.

I would like to have a coffee with...

Herbert Prohaska. Because soccer legends are just people who love coffee and maybe the odd splash.

I am a fan of...

Star Wars. May the Force be with us all!

This is my favorite sport to do...

Hiking, downhill, via ferrata. Yes, I like conquering nature and not falling on my nose in the process.

On a desert island I take with me...

WLAN. And a boat to get away again. Because no one wants to be lonely forever, not even Robinson Crusoe.

In 20 years I have...

My own lightsaber. Or at least an impressive collection of Star Wars memorabilia. And perhaps a touch of wisdom.
