In this article, we want to introduce Sabin Borka, our Quality Assurance Analyst. When Sabin joined our agency in October 2021, we asked him a few questions to get to know him a little better.
This is Sabin Borka
Sabin lives in Uzdin, Serbia.
How would you describe yourself?
I am a friendly, positive, and happy person. I live in a village, but that’s what makes a relaxed life for me. Many families who live here simply want to live their lives quietly and away from the hustle and bustle.
I also love anything related to new tech and web technologies, especially when it comes to WordPress. Ever since I got to know WordPress, I’ve been fascinated by the content management system and its unlimited possibilities.
How do you spend your spare time?
In my spare time, I love to play with my 6-year-old son. We love to go to a nearby river to fish, but he is a lively little person so he prefers chasing away all the fish.
I like running too, and have joined half marathons in the past here in Serbia. I actually prefer running in the winter because I think the air is particularly healthy then – especially with snow. Unfortunately, we didn’t have too much snow in the past few years.
What is important to you?
For me, the most important thing is my family – and then everything else. But, of course, it is also important that I have work and get on well with my colleagues.
In the office, you just meet over a coffee. At Syde, people talk virtually. It’s not comparable, but it’s always important to me to stay in contact and exchange ideas with different people.
Sabin’s way to Syde
I earned a bachelor’s degree in economics and a master’s in web design for e-society. With web design, working was more with HTML and CSS back then. So I started with classic computer languages and software programs such as Dreamweaver, Joomla, or Drupal.
I have worked in the Agricultural Service for 11 years. In my free time, I worked with WordPress and fixed pc hardware and software. I was so excited about working with WordPress that, of course, I immediately said yes when I got the chance to work for Syde.
The opportunity to work for Syde just blew me away because I had only heard good things from Syde. I knew it was a company with accomplished WordPress knowledge. It is also a great advantage to work remotely. But it is much more important that I can work with WordPress all day.
Today I belong to the Syde family. I am very happy and excited to have this great opportunity – and for the first time, completely remote. Since I still work a few hours a week for my old company, I’m used to working in the office. Now I work remotely simultaneously, which is quite interesting because I get to know two working worlds.
At the moment, I’m in a learning process, but I’m looking forward to contributing my full potential to Syde. I also love the friendly and modern environment here.
Questions to Syder Sabin
We asked Sabin a few personal questions to learn more about him:
What do you like most about your city?
I live in a very small village, where everybody knows each other. So nothing really happens there. However, Novi Sad is nearby where you can go out and have a nice walk around. The city was renovated and polished up and now looks so lovely.
What is your favorite smartphone app?
I have a lot of favorite apps, but my top 5 are Google Maps, Gmail, Tasks, Google Keep and YouTube.
What is the best meal you can cook on your own?
The best meal I can cook is homemade pizza.
You get stuck in the elevator for many hours, and there’s a song playing in a continuous loop; what song would that be?
Aerosmith – Love In An Elevator
