THOUGHTS: Celebrate Life with Sky Oryx Staffs

"Working in different companies gives you different feeling. It proves that after ending something, you would always have a better start..."

Finally, after a bunch of viber messages that are continuously flowing everday (believe me, Iphone always hangs, lolz!), the “reunion” of Sky Oryx Joint Venture (SOJV) former and current staffs came to reality. Correct me If I am wrong but this had to be the event with the biggest (?) number of participants. Nax! Sounds like it was a one bigtime reunion, ey!

Anyways, it started with a simple viber group invitation from 2 (not so old, heheh!) organizers – thanks to Kuya Jim and Kuya David, the group is growing bigger and bigger each day. (as of this moment, viber groups has 83 members).

Really?! Ganyan kayo karami sa previous company nyo?! Bakit ang dami?

Ate Wilda, ikaw lang ang wala sa Procurement :)

These are just some questions that you hear from your new colleagues. Well, who would not notice one of the biggest projects ever, in Qatar? The Hamad International Airport (formerly New Doha Intl Airport). With over 19,000 employees working for the Contract package 18 (CP-18) from workers to directors, you’re gonna be outta hell if you will not be able to recognize even one face whenever you got to Lulu Hypermarket, The Mall, Shopping Centers or even in the most unexpected places like toilets (unexpected ba to?!)

It’s really a good thing to spend some time with these people. Honestly, I don’t know all of’em, I worked from 2011-2014 (Procurement and Subcontract), and the project started to roll in 2006. But spending some time together, see them again and catch up about what has been going on with them is a great anti-stress reliever, not to mention that watching (nah, I didn’t play last night) them bowling was somehow a good anti-boredom pill.
