I have many years of experience with interacting with people and working with databases under less-than-optimal circumstances, from criminal justice to the census but all stressful situations requiring tact with a bit of Sherlock Holmes to solve the “puzzle” and being as helpful as possible. I find people are very relatable to me as long as I give them respect first.
