Hmmm..Suntec...

Ok...so its been 3 months since I've been back to the Suntec office. Things have been rather ok but I still miss my other office and my seat. In the old office, I had the best cubicle which was next to my boss's but still right in the corner. No one would come to my side unless they had to see me but it was still nice enough that I did not feel I was isolated. I had the privacy but at the same time, all I needed to do was to just look over the panel to see my colleague in front of me. In the Suntec office, all the cubicles do not have any privacy at all unless you're a director or the PAs. Another thing is that, we do not get to leave the building for lunches anymore as opposed to the old one. We used to get more fresh air while out for lunches which I thought was more healthy. We also have more variety of good food to choose from while at the old office and when I say more variety of good food, I mean the kind where you don't have to shelve out more than $6 a meal. Another sad thing is that, colleagues who joined us while in the old office and moved with us, cannot adjust to the new environment and have left us one by one. Another one left us yesterday so only 5 from the other office remains now which I think is sad. We had all become very close while working in the other office where it was more informal and you could literally speak your mind without fear of anyone. I wonder how many would be left by the end of this year...sad...
