I was really excited about my first business trip as I had no chance to go to other offices before.
CTG3 Following the directions that I got from SY I was able to find Yh (stands fro Yokohama) office without any trouble at all. Well, I guess I need to tell more about SY.)))) I first heard about him from Chris (previous intern). SY also used to be an intern in TmP, but now he is a regular employee. I must say that "SY" stands for a typical Japanese name, cause later on you'll get to know what’s it all about. So I have written to him to introduce myself and we exchanged some curtusy letters. Later on SY topic came up during lunch hour and somehow KY was vrey agitated about the guy. He said that SY is very interesting and talkative and stuff and that I must see for myself. I was taken aback by such reaction, but that was all I could make KY tell me. Later on my boss told me that SY is actually half-german/half-japanese… so that’s what it was all about XD I must say that SY doesn’t look Japanese (except for the hair) and doesn’t really look german (except for the ears), but as it has been proven – kids from mixed marriages are usually goodlooking) and that is precisely the case… SY had graduated from german university and came to work for bosch in japan and apparently he and chris are really good buddies) later on hr intern girl – marie (the one with whom I've been exchanging emails when organizing my trip to japan) said that she thinks that SY is really quite and more like "staring type", whatever that supposed to mean. So her impression was opposite to the one that I’ve heard before… My personal opinion is that he is sociable alright, cause I had no problem finding topics to talk about and I think he can be quite fun in the company of close friends.
The other person that I was supposed to work with was CTG3 boss. Nice guy in his 40s who was really trying to babysit me as much as possible. After work he treated me and SY to ramen and even walked me all the way to the subway station even though he needed to go the opposite direction.
Work itself was not hard but as the explanations were carried out only in Japanese my brains were slowly melting away. However I survived my first day in Yh and enjoyed a quite eve in the hotel. Oh... I did managed to burn my hand with hot water and notice it only later on... i am hopeless in that way(((
