When people ask me what I do for a living, I tell them I'm a property developer. They get very annoyed when they ask to see my property portfolio and I open up Google Analytics and show them all the GA4 properties I've built and developed. One of the people who asked to see my property portfolio got so annoyed they shouted at me, "That's not what I meant!". I apologised for the misunderstanding and opened up Google Sheets to show him my Amplitude event tracking schema with all the user and event properties. He punched me in the face and stormed off. That day I learned a valuable lesson on asking for clarity. You see, when I say property developer I wrongly assume that means GA4 properties because of Google's market share in the analytics space, but the world is changing and to some people property developer means event and user properties on platforms like Amplitude. You can bet I won't make the same mistake again. I apologise to all the people who I wrongly assumed wanted to see my GA4 properties. I should have never made that assumption. As the age old saying goes, when you assume, you make a complete idiot out of both of us. #DataJokes
