Ahh, my early days in SKO (skoleoplæring) — back when I thought I knew everything about IT. Linux? Easy. Networking? Piece of cake. Reality? Absolute chaos.

It all started with an Ubuntu laptop and a bit too much confidence. I’d “optimize” my system, break it, reinstall, and repeat — until reinstalling Ubuntu became muscle memory. At one point, I could probably boot into the installer faster than into the desktop.

Then came my “networking phase.” I was building labs in Packet Tracer and GNS3, configuring routers and NAT like I was summoning digital demons. I managed to break things so thoroughly that even the network gods must’ve sighed. GNS3 froze, Packet Tracer crashed, and my IP tables looked like abstract art.

One day, while I was trying to fix yet another self-inflicted disaster, my monitor flickered and displayed something that looked like: “Fejlgobling…”

Maybe it was a glitch. Maybe it was destiny. Either way, the name stuck — and I became Fejlgoblin, the chaos creature of Techcollege Aalborg.

Now, every time I bork a config or forget a semicolon, I just smile. Because being the Fejlgoblin isn’t about failing — it’s about learning loudly.

If you’ve ever broken something you didn’t understand, welcome to the club. You’re one of us now.
