So @FarrahC32 is a relatively new @awscloud employee and mistakenly believes that people know she works there because of her badge.

In reality, that's not how people know you work at AWS. A thread!

When you catch up with people you haven't seen since before the pandemic, you start off by handing them a document of what you worked on for them to read first.

Suddenly your favorite restaurant is "The Cheesecake Factory" because it's the only place that has a menu long enough.

You use the word "Chime" to describe anything other than the sound a bell makes.

You adopt a new puppy and name it something with 40 syllables.

You frame your parenting style in terms of Leadership Principles.

Someone invites you to Las Vegas for a weekend and suddenly this is you:

Your preferred approach to ccccccjekeghlsrflkvlerldfeektdchtjgfdjknkurf

You start instinctively avoiding anyone who's wearing anything that remotely resembles a red lanyard.

You absolutely did not weigh in on the "AWS Infinidash" thing because two newspaper articles and three weeks later you're *still* not completely confident that it's not somebody's skunkworks NDA'd project.

When you're done eating at "The Cheesecake Factory" you're absolutely gobsmacked when the server brings you your check in less than 8 hours.

You dream about one day getting promoted to VP so you can travel in style: by booking an exit row for a 14 hour flight.

You scoff at people cracking wise at how long baseball season is; clearly they've never heard of OP1.

This GIF cracks you up, because *everyone* knows bananas are free.

You can't fathom the idea of a conference that isn't named after an email subject line.

You’d like to get a tattoo but you’re not sure where to put the “opinions my own” disclaimer.
