meeting friends back after 2 years
now i’m back in my home town, feeling dizzy and sleepy, (well, actually my mom came back from US so thus a bit of headache too) – but within 3 weeks i was staying 4 different countries in surfgold.
well it’s been a long time, except china i visited them only after 2 years… couple of updates from my friends/brothers:
* uncle derek is still on his own busi. still it is under profitable situation, but seems his public recognition is getting better and better. despite the fact that he is now father of iTwins (hh), seems he’s still following what he wants to do.
* Ivy Stanley Paul seems they are close as always. i met them at last day of HK visit, and seemed they are usual to meet – and Stanley is still not planning to be married xixi
* naresh is now married more than 6 month, but this guy didn’t ever changed. i asked him “better show some maturity” and he said “that’s why my mustach is very long now” – u see what i mean. still he was naresh as he used to be – crazy funny, taking care of others, and shouting with sales teams (haha). i met his wife, veena, and she is very, very bright person. i briefly heard that before she met naresh, she was feeling depression in a depth, but for me it is almost impossible to imagine that this much bright person can be depressed. naresh said she changed a lot after they met – heh, nice boy 
* prabuddha was making me shocked when i asked an etiquette only question “when u’ll gonna married”, by answering “within next 5 month” (!!!!) 55, what happened to you?! this guy seems more and more holier – now don’t smoke, don’t drink (well, even before), strict vegi – seems he is preparing his “no-joyful life” after the marriage. hh. other then that, he’s also not to much changed from what i remember.
* uncle joe invited me to have dinner yesterday – and i found his new home, now he bought one flat in the condo. (wow!) now this guy, i can say, is a really singaporean. still he speaks korean, but life is more like sgp ppl. especially when it comes to family life – and i think family life is most part of his life now. with uncle jason, those 2 guys were keep talking about raising baby and what to do, etc. (sigh) i’m not sure i can be of those good daddy.
this is raw octopus
i want raw!
China, china…
nowadays i stay in Shanghai, China, every half a month in a month, thanks to the project.
now when i go to china, the network always annoy me – because it blocks wordpress.com! and it is not just wordress, but most, i’d say, most of other sites are slow - whether it is from KR or other country. i cannot watch the baseball on-air steam broadcast via internet – i can only see the text broadcast. it is used around 7~8 years before

3일동안 워크샵
상해 RDC에서 일하는 제롬이 한국에 방문해서 워크샵을 했다.
하루에 10~12시간씩 회의를 하는데 힘든 것도 힘든 거지만 정말 감탄했다.
이 대머리 아저씨는 (나보다 세살이나 어린데) 싱가폴 놈들과는 다르다, 싱가폴 놈들과는!
실제로 아는 걸 얘기하는데다가, 모르는 것, 결정 안난 것은 무조건 끝까지 논의를 하는 성격이다. 거기다가 자기가 할 일이라고 생각이 들면 더 말할 것없이 자기가 하겠다고 한다.
이런 녀석과 같이 일하면 정말 폐 끼치면 안되겠다는 생각이 든다.
상해에서 일하는 다른 사람들은 어떨지 궁금하다.
How to interview a developer candidate in Bangalore
one of the many things that are pretty different from Korea and here is the interview procedure for recruiting a developer. i came here last november, and due to some unexpected situation, i was doing some member hiring activity for more than a couple of month – and which i’m doing from time to time nowadays also albeit it is not my full time responsibility.

싱가폴애들은 다 그런가?
지금진행중인 HP AchievePlus 프로젝트의 새로운 싱가폴 프로젝트 매니저가 방갈로르에 출장왔다.
이름은 Srini, 나이는 대충 나보다 한두살 빠질것같다. PMP를 땄다길래 첨엔 좀 반가왔는데 (현재 우리회사 통털어서 얘랑 나 두명뿐…) 일하는거 보면 살짝쿵 걱정이 된다.
뭔가 설명하면 이해는 하는듯한데, 8월3일날 출근해서 지금까지 프로젝트 인수인계를 받은게 하나도 없댄다….. 도대체 한달동안 뭐한거냐.?
전임자가 없었다는건 문제지만, 프로그램 매니저도 있고 오퍼레이션 매니저도 있고 매니지먼트도 있는데 그사람들 followup해서 이해는 안하고… 지금까지 사이트 테스트 아이디/패스워드도 모르고 한번도 로그인 안해봤다는 애한테 도대체 뭘 가르쳐 줘야하나..
10월엔 다 털어놓고 놀러가야되는데 이거 걱정이 태산이로다;;;
그전에 PM이랍시고 사고만 왕창싸고 간 Thusara 선생이나, 직책은 프로그램 매니저지만 프로그램이 어디로 가는줄도 모르는 Peter선생이나, 도대체 문서는 만들줄도 모르고… 외국하고 communication하면서 전화로 다 때우는게 말이 된다고 생각하나? 하긴 그전의 HP SMB club할때 HP 애들도 거의 verbal communication으로 넘어가려다 자기들기 나중에 된통 싸움만 하더만…
이건 은근히 싱가폴의 특성인것같다. ㅡ.ㅡ; 문서를 만들어 줘도 제대로 읽지를 않는것 같으니…
Offsite in Jungle lodge :p
at 22/Jul, SurfGold Bangalore office went offsite team building activity.
i didn’t know that, but this was held first time in the BLR office and thus everybody was so excited.
Naresh told that we’ll go there and sleep there one night, because of this Sandhya aunty was going home earlier than others.. 
but others (especially married uncles) were enjoying really much. (imagine that you don’t have to give any excuse to your wife for your drinking. i can name a few of this case – Sat**h, Sent**l, Sud**p ) :p
program schedule was like:
- paint ball (something similiar to survival game)
- go Jungle lodge and do some team competition
- campfire in the evening
- go to safari in next morning
