The coffee is very good \ud83d\ude42 HR is much younger and what a coincidence that I already know quite a number of people on the floor.

Perhaps I&#8217;m taking this whole &#8220;work in Singapore&#8221; too seriously, as in like, working in the country &#8220;Singapore&#8221; is like one job such that &#8220;quitting&#8221; means going back home or back to US etc.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, if you&#8217;re reading this, I do want to let you know that being with you all has been an enjoyable and fruitful experience.
