I Found Nemo
When I first joined Ralink, I worked as the receptionist and being the receptionist, I would have to sort the mail. Sorting mail is easy except when it comes down to giving mail to people who aren’t in the office. Our ex-CTO would receive a ton of legal mail and I would have to open, scan, and send to him. Most of the time, I couldn’t find him. But then one time, he finally responded and this is what he said:
Welcome on board. You are quick to get into the secret of “Finding Nemo.”
I laughed for a good ten minutes. Then I was confused because he didn’t even answer as to whether I should file the invoices or not. Oh well.
Today I went on my usual coffee run, detouring to Starbucks instead of my usual Peet’s only because I was feeling for that fatty Cinnamon Dulce Latte. I could feel somebody staring at the side of my head and I turn and there he is! Nemo! He was engrossed in a conversation so he just winked and I smiled.
I’m going to miss this company.
Hm. Just noticed that the guy at the register actually spelled my name right without having me repeat it or spell it out. I’m impressed, Starbucks guy. Props to you.
