After 1 week at work

So I have now officially finished 1 week of work... and since everyone is asking how is it, it's easier to post it here instead of repeating for every single person :)

in summary, I'm totally enjoying work. I like the company, the culture, the colleagues, and the opportunities presented in the tasks and assignments that I do. I do think there's a lot that I still need to learn and get used to such, things like business culture, dealing with people, finance and management terms in chinese and of course getting a better grasp of the industry and general business environment here in Taiwan... It's also interestig to see management concepts that we learnt in AIESEC being applied on a much bigger scale here, and I resolve to take some time to go through some of those concepts as I learnt it so that I can be sharper on my feet when seeing them in application at work...

Here are some photos of my office and desk area

We also had a BBQ gathering at my boss's weekend house, to celebrate the success of the 5th Anniversary event held last Friday... The house was in a villa area on a hill along the outskirts of Taipei county so it was very peaceful and nature-y... plus Sakura was in bloom so I got my first experience of Taiwan Sakura!

Here's the link to the BBQ photos: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=218537&id=576355703&l=7b4f8
