when work becomes play
Ram, the Deputy Manager of Raffles, is away in India on holiday. It's so great!
Roni, the Manager - who is normally stationed in Stratford, is back to be in charge of Raffles while Ram is away. Like all the other employees, I have utmost respect for Roni because of the way he treats his colleagues and those working below him. He makes everyone feel wanted, and more importantly, motivated to do their job to the very best. Even as manager, he clears tables, empties rubbish, and sweeps the floor, something we would never see Ram do unless one of the bosses was around.
All the Raffles employees (myself included) are so much happier at work, and the air of Raffles has a certain warmth about it when Roni is around. Roni cares about the welfare and happiness of those around him, and earns respect before expecting it. Amazingly, no one cares if he leaves early to go home, because they all believe he deserves to relax! How rare is that?
27 days to go before Ram gets back. Better enjoy it while it lasts!
Highlight of the Day
Fruit Cocktail at work for playing Andrew Lloyd Webber, curry puff and good food at work. Just LOVE it when Roni's in charge!

hi, just blog browsing here.
I played in a big band a couple of years ago, trumpet, and it was one of the most amazing musical experiences in my life. Listening to Jazz and belting it out with a tight band are two extremely different things :)
Now all we have to do is to learn to incorporate jazz into the church scene :)
Happy playing,
rwichew
ps. is that ken hirai you've got playing?
Hey rwichew - nice to meet you? :)
Yeah - bigbanding is the best - can't even begin to describe how great it is!
Curious - how did you find me? You know someone I know?
Yeah - its is Ken Hirai - well spotted!
Feel free to tingkle on the chatterboard.
