Ha,ha - For those who are reading this and wondering, "hey, didn't he leave like 2 months ago?", you are absolutely right. Talk about extremely belated farewells....
Well, for support group staff, sometimes someone does their job so well that you hardly ever need to contact them. Either that or you're not fully using the system. Well, in any case, in the almost 9 years that Chung KP has been with the company, the only memory of me asking for "tech support" from him is concerning some labeling - a relatively trivial matter to contend with.
Sometime in the beginning of November (NEARLY 2 months ago), we had a farewell lunch for Chung at the Chinese Restaurant at the Renaissance Hotel (we used to call it the Ramada Hotel many years ago). Astonishingly, they offered a Dim Sum buffet lunch (call them before hand to book though). That's an all-you-can-eat Dim Sum lunch, to be more specific.
Present was practically the entire staff of the IT department, with some HR, Finance and other guys (I fall in this category).
After the lunch and a short, short speech, NK presented Chung with a souvenir, which turn out to be none other than a laptop bag (befitting of the real IT guy - sans laptop, of course).
After that was the usual photo taking session, before shaking hands and bidding our farewells.
In his exit e-mail (sort of a tradition for those of us leaving the company), Chung wrote it short and witty, complete with an 8 point FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) too! :)
Well, with so many things going on, I never really got a lead on where he'd be headed off to. At least I don't hear standard cliche for leaving the company to "further studies" any more!
Musings and light-hearted tales of my hobbies (photography, cars) and anything else that warrants mention....
