Could you tell us briefly about your family background?
Born and raised in Sweden, and living there still. My father was a university professor. His parents were shopkeepers in a rural village.
Changes In The Professional Environment:
At the beginning there was still a lot of manual work. Typewriters, forms to fill in by hand, loads of printed documents to file. Now computers do most of the work.
Other Thoughts:
If you have taken a decision that turns out badly, think carefully about why, but don't be ashamed of it.
Done Differently:
I should have had more trust in myself and less in advisors.

Tough question. Young people meet many difficulties today. Have patience, that is all I can say.
Plans For The Future:
Having retired, living a good life I hope!
The Decisions That Matter
To abandon a possible university career and take full time office work because it was safer.

I was in private employment some years, but now in municipal administration like before.
