Haha this made me laugh and reminisce about my old job :) I used to be a product manager at a big fried chicken chain restaurant, and developing fried chicken products was my main responsibility. Lots of fried chicken eating between trying different restaurants, checking what competitors had, and developing our own products with our R&D teams lol. There are jobs out there where you can eat lots of fried chicken haha. I even took leftovers (chicken I only took a bite or two from) and brought those home for our dogs so they ate a lot of fried chicken too during that time.

Yeah. Maybe come do the AMA after you've shipped your backpacks and you have a huge following of parents/kids who love your product.

Then people will be interested in "how'd you do that"....this is just an ad. Ads get downvoted.

to be fair, that's not weird. Backpacks are fucking lit.

But most people with a passion for backpack design are typically more interested in technical outdoor gear or EDC, not designing an overly engineered child's backpack (like...is any kid really going to use all of those separate organizer pouches? really? nah, they are just going to cram shit in the bag).
