Last Friday, I attended the long awaited gathering of the 4pm gang. This gang is consists of my boss Paul, colleagues Edwin, Shinder, Swee Ling, ex-colleagues Dave, Joey, Gek & Sheila. How I miss the good'o times when we would gather @ the 11th floor pantry for tea break almost everyday without fail.
The gathering was dinner at Tony Romas Suntec. Each of us was supposed to come with a present of not less than $9.90, and all had to wear red top with black bottom. Of course, not all complied. I was one of the non-compliance personnel. The dinner was supposed to start 6.30pm(correct me if I'm wrong) and being typical S'poreans, the gang started arriving only after 6.30pm. Among all the late comers, Sheila was the last one (I'll skip mentioning the sequence of arrival cos I forgot, hee...)
Before I continue, lets take a look at some pictures first
----> Swee Ling, the main character of the evening. She took half day leave just to go rebond her hair and buy a red t shirt (her earlier one was not red)
----> Lim Gek Cheng aka Gek or "Xiao Mei". Ex-colleague of mine. Used to be my good neighbour as her workstation was just beside mine. While she was still in Amex, she was the mastermind of all our outings. Has got the most idea where got good food.
----> Joey, ex-colleague of mine. Now already an AVP at another bank. There were several rumors surrounding this lady. Mostly cooked up by the paparazzi team (thats all of us), but I rather not post at my blog. Let's see if any of the rumors become true...
----> Paul, my boss. Taught me alot all this while. Even nominated me for the excellent staff award (but only managed to get bronze). Can say he's quite an understanding boss. Though he entrusts me with many responsibilities, but has never given me any extra pressure. With that, I can learn at my own pace. Am grateful for that.
----> Edwin, my colleague. Here's a very S.N.A.G. Very soft spoken and easy going. He's quite good at bowling, have played with him a few times. Used to jog together as well. But lately I'm into gym, so have not been joining them for jogging sessions. So sorry, I try to make time ya.
----> Dave, ex colleague. See he's not in red, but he's got a "valid" reason. Claimed that he's only been informed on the very same day of the gathering. Dunno how true... He's a busy man. Even after our dinner, he still needs to go back office. So poor thing.
----> Sheila, ex colleague. She's not in red either. But has got no valid reason. Think we were too busy eating to think of a forfiet. See the small hand at the corner? That's my hand! She's the one who got my present, a photo album.
......Pls look out for part 2 for more photos.........
----> Let's gather all the presents!
----> This is my present from Gek :)
