Meet the Staff: Say hello to Kody!
It took a bit to get ahold of Kody, but I finally did. I couldn’t have asked for anymore out of the first interview, though I think Kody was a little shy at first, but thanks to some helpful Twitterers we got him to open up.
How long have you been working at UK2Group?
Been working at UK2 since September of 2009.
How did you end up finding your job at UK2, and what was the first job they had you doing?
I sent my resume in to Ditlev (Bredahl) and he ended up contacting me. Originally I was working in Sales & Billing at VPS.NET.
Odd question, but do you suffer from the VPS.NET “Curse?” Nick and I, since starting at VPS.NET, are lucky to sleep in past 7. How about you?
Unfortunately not, especially since I’ve been working at fellow UK2Group brand, 100TB, doing technical support and being Tom’s personal assistant. I haven’t been able to do much with VPS.NET lately; maybe I’ve been lucky.
What was the most fun/challenging part of your job at VPS.NET?
The most challenging part was training other staff to do VPS.NET billing. The most fun part was talking with all of the clients, and having a chance to help each one of them.
How many pringles you can fit in your mouth at one go?
lol? I can’t say I like pringles, so there’s no definite answer.
What kind of animal would you describe yourself as? Cheetah maybe?
hmm maybe more of a lion, leader of the pack … Or so I try to.
Any other good stuff to know about you? Hobbies, sports you play in HS?
I like to travel a lot, and I really like driving/road trips. I played soccer in HS.
Watching the world cup then? Any favorite player or team you’re cheering for?
Yup. I’ve just always had a passion for soccer. I’m rooting for the US of course.
Alright… think I’ve spent enough time talking… any final thoughts?
Nope, just time to finish laying out before I work at 4.
I hear you on that. I’ve relocated my office to being outside. I hear you on that … as a fellow Ohioan I think we can agree that it’s been a pretty remarkable summer so far.
