The gym, the cafeteria, anything you can think of are inside the office. And guess what? All these facilities are open 24 hours a day! Ah, Jellybean. Yes. I thought we have talked about some photo sessions with Jellybean. G – That sounds like one of our offices in India. The gym, the cafeteria, anything you can think of are inside the office.

Sometimes seeing everyone go to work motivates me as well. And even if I work outside of CBD area, maybe the travelling time (by public transport) is still the same. But I dont mind working elsewhere (say an island/holiday resort etc) haha!

I mean, there are really A LOT of people working in one small area. I have only been to the Changi Business Park once and the air does seem to be cleaner and fresher there, like you said. I think most of us are happy in a comfort zone while at the same time feel restless in a comfort zone. Some take the initiative to get out of it and try something different. Some have to take the change as it comes. Either way, we know that change is constant, eh?

That seems like a long time. So, with the 3 years bond, that would total up to 10 years! It is good to hear that you are given a new job within the organization and to get challenged in a new way. I envy you! You are right about the time for reflection. I have over the past done my share of traveling related to work. I still remember back in Mauritius, I had to drive 70 km every morning from my home to my work place - one way. Compares to the 17 km I travel now is really nothing. Then again, driving in Mauritius I must say is a lot more pleasurable then driving in Singapore ... ha ha ha ... scenic-wise and cost-wise. Anyway, we shall catch up! :) Walter – 7 years?!
