He visited
Singapore on a business trip and he was so kind to invite us to have dinner
with him though he no longer represents MC. I would have to say that not many
bosses are like him who wants to keep in touch with ex-staff after they retired
or leaves Singapore. I am so glad that he is one of those few who are really
super nice.
While it
was still early for dinner, my buddy was able to meet to have a short tea with me
and so, we went to Tiong Bahru Bakery for our dose. I enjoyed the coffee and
food there but it was almost time for dinner so, we kind of restricted
ourselves to indulgence. 
Dinner started
on time and I was happy to see Yatomi-san and his two new colleagues when they
stepped into the restaurant. I was quickly introduced to his new colleagues and
they were really nice and warmth people. In fact, I knew one of them, Koide-san
for a long time but only through writing while he was seconded to MC last time.
We finally got to meet today and he is really a super funny and witty guy!
During dinner,
we had so much fun getting to know each other and we talked about how we missed
Yatomi-san and the wonderful office environment we used to have as the vibes
are totally different now. Many old colleagues had left for better environment while
many stayed put waiting for retirement or perhaps retrenchments. Sighz… how sad
isn’t it!
Yatomi-san
told us that he will try to visit Singapore as often as possible on business
and we do hope to meet him again in the near future!
Thank you
boss for having us to dinner and we miss you!
