To me, it's explaining to my family my job. I work remotely, from home, on software. When your family is used to the good old 9 to 5 and going to work every day, well it's a adventure...

In general, it's always a bit frustrating (but necessary) to adapt your speech to non-technical people. I can't talk the same way to a colleague and to my father who knows nothing about software. It's challenging, but it also shows if you really understand your subject
