Starting anew

Posted on the October 11th, 2009 under Lessons Learned,Others Matters by angelopanares

Moving on from my previous company and being expatriated here to Singapore was a very tense, agitating and exciting experience. I have just most recently settled down and have got into the groove of life here in my new country.

Being with my previous company for such a long time, I have forgotten the feeling of being a new guy on the block. The first days where allocated for introductions and orientations. It was a bit embarrings coz I am really bad at remembering names and I was thrust into a situation wherein I had to remember a hundred or so names not to mention multi-cultural names at that with different spellings, accents and intonations, add their positions and their diffrent teams and divisions; it was overwhelming!
