thank god it’s friday on a wednesday

at the office, we had TGIFriday’s come over for our team lunch in celebration of tita nild’s and mon’s last week in the office. why do they deserve such grandiose lunch and merrymaking? because they have been with the company for so so years (30 years for tital nilds and 15 years for mon—imagine that!) of dedicated service. i can attest to that even in my less-than-a-year stay in the office. i’ve seen them worked so hard especially tita nilds (whose my cubicle-mate, by the way) that i could not even imagine she is also a mother to growing children my age. i would see her work until the evening (fyi, we are service-mates on most evenings) and even on saturdays just to finish her work. if i were her son, i would already have been jealous of this company for taking away so much of her time. but then again, as she said, this is the company that placed food on her family’s table, who would have argued with that?

though it’s not yet closing time, it’s time to move forward—to spend the rest of their lives at the comforts of their homes and enjoy the fruits of their hardwork and labor. meanwhile, we, who have been so much inspired by their loyalty and service, will continue be inspired and emulate their hard work. cheers to life!
