He’s bold and loves the Trovit stress balls. But be aware and don’t get tricked, Manuel has a twin in Trovit. You will find out which twin is the evil one here. A little hint: it’s not Davide.
How long have you been in Trovit? I’ve been here for a little more than a year.
What and Where did you study? First I started Biology in La Coruña but then I switched to IT because I thought I would live better. It turns out I don’t (laughs).
What were you doing before coming to Trovit? I was working at Inditex in La Coruña.
Describe your typical day at Trovit. Well, first of all I try to get to the office, thankfully I live almost next door. Once I accomplish such task, the first thing I do is throw a stress ball at Dani (if he reached the office before me, if not I keep the ball for later). After that I do whatever is pending. Throughout the day we joke around a lot and have fun.
What did you want to be when you were a kid? As a kid all I wanted was to be older, so everyone would stop annoying me. Homer Simpson was an idol to me (at least I am bold already). In fact, I think I’ve never had a specific plan.
What are your hobbies? I like going out and have some beers with friends. I also waste time with IT and science. Furthermore, I watch a lot of movies and series. Oh, and of course sleeping, like a sloth.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years? I don’t even know what I am going to do tomorrow, how am I supposed to know where will I be in 5 years (laughs)… but for sure I will be balder and wrinkled. I am certainly interested in knowing where I will be in 5 years, as I’ve never stayed 5 years in the same place.
You could do whatever you want for an entire day… Uff, there are so many things to fix that I don’t even know where to start.
What is the craziest thing you have ever done? I’ve done quite a lot of crazy things. For example: I burned my own hand, I felt on stinging nettles when climbing from one room to another and I changed the locks of my High School (although they don’t know it was me).
Favorite food? I am a glutton, so I eat everything. If I’d had to choose, I would say percebes (goose barnacle). It’s a kind of seafood from Galicia.
Curious facts about you:
- I did a test to become a police officer, but I didn’t pass, so now I throw stress balls in Trovit.
- I love animals, that is why I don’t have any. Although I had a ferret.
- Once upon a time I had long hair.
- As a kid I was very shy.
- I could not pronounce the letter “a”, so I stopped talking when I was 5 years old.
- I can’t drink vodka. Just smelling it makes me feel nauseas.
- I used to play soccer, now I don’t even watch it on TV.
Something you couldn’t live without? Definitely my home and friends. I couldn’t also imagine my life without a shower, I would feel weird. Obviously we can’t forget food.
At Trovit we all are unique and have a special characteristic. Which one is yours? I am the stress balls master.
Nominate the next Troviter! I think Parsing guys haven’t been interviewed, so the next one will be Mark Castellà.
