Hello fellow data maniacs and everyone hunting for the perfect gift for their spouse/partner/colleague in the Data Department!
The holidays are approaching, and we all know how challenging it is to pick a gift that would genuinely excite a data person. 😴 Another mug? A binary code t-shirt? NO. We, data professionals, have one thing in common: we love to play! And we are missing one key toy.
Our Christmas Dream: The LEGO Data Department!
The Data Department isn’t just about SQL queries and Python scripts. It’s a complex ecosystem! And that’s why we need a complex building set! Imagine this:
The Mega Set: LEGO Data Department (Set 10401)
A large box featuring an entire data center, complete with blinking servers, cooling towers, and, of course, a coffee machine and cactus corner.
Minifigures: The complex hierarchy of the data department – from the Data Owner (with a crown and a money pouch) to the Scrum Master (with a board full of illegible notes) and the stressed-out DevOps Engineer (with their fifth Red Bull in hand).
Small Sets for Specialists:
If the Mega Set is too much, we have a solution! Small, themed sets for individual roles (perfect as a team colleague gift or for an advent calendar):
🎄 A Christmas Challenge for LEGO (and our HR):
Let’s admit it: These sets DO NOT EXIST! 😭
But that won’t stop us! It’s time to show the world, and especially LEGO, that Data People need them.
That’s why we are spreading this pre-holiday challenge: If you also dream of building your data architecture out of bricks, LIKE and SHARE this post!
Buying a gift for a data person? Ask them which role they would build first! (Correct answer: All of them.)
P.S.: The image is just our (very realistic) imagination. But just imagine the joy under the Christmas tree! ✨
