Reasons To Smile
What do you know, I can list down a few reasons to smile lately. My CRM-JP team has been super-cool, extra-nice folks. Sometimes a rarety but a real good-find!
My newest fave is Horigome. His smile is sometimes contagious, keeps on practicing English, a surfer, and my frequent-caller! I paused for a while to make sure I have this correct. Indeed, it was him who said of our Programme Mgr 'He looks like a Santa Claus, doesn't he !'
Next is Matsumoto-san first because he works so fast! And he has a lot of inputs. And he recently warmed my heart with this email...
"毎日遅くまでありがとうございました。クパチーノでは楽しみましょう"
Matsuhashi-san of TeleSales seems to be a serious-type. He looks a little bit worried about me but he seems a dedicated person as well. He was the first to react to my first-ever email to this team with
"英語は全然ダメなんですが、頑張ってProjectに取り組みたいと思います。よろしくお願いしま～す！"
Akimoto-san who seems to be a smart person. Honest enough to admit that our beloved TM is so relaxed, too relaxed in fact. Akimoto-san, in the middle of the video conf just blurts out, "so, how long have you been living in Japan?" Ha??!! Hahaha, It's as if saying 'Gotcha!'. He'll be flying to Munich on Monday, well I hope to see him there.
Chiba-san is probably the team's self-designated secretary. He never fails to take meeting minutes. Yahoo~ Big load off my shoulder. He said he also doesn't speak English, but just the same tries his best to contribute. In email correspondence, he's the most-interactive, reactive member, but in meetings too shy, most of the time.
Iida-san from Premium Support. Little bit cute guy whom I always accidentally kick (accidentally emphasized, ok?!) during the videocon. I've really not talked with him yet but I'll be spending time with him and Horigome-san in Sta. Cruz. Yes, we're going to have our bonding moments, courtesy of surfing and TM!
And finally Sakuma-san, the boss. I didn't expect him to be such a jolly and a really talkative person. Has lots of ideas and stories in the bag. He's like a respectable father. Someone who's so secure, something acquired through years of experience (evident in his recending hairlines hehehe).
Well, the list doesn't end there....Aizawa-san has really been very helpful driving the P-Mark, EUDB Flag project. Thank you thank you thank you!
Lanye, Blesh and Leah survived on their own for SI Code Cleanup.
Blesh taking charge of CP micro management and somehow bug fixing has become an exciting, challenging and enjoyable thing to do. Thanks to Conrad as well. It seems Orson is also being pushed to commit more. That's great!
Of course, my ever-cooperative IT Boy Nojima (whom Ken suggests I go out on date with..nahh, that's gonna be a little bit complicated..or maybe too complicated) and ISS-JP's Takahashi-san.
Life's not bad afterall...
