| David @ Work |
Last night when I was at work, the boss came because he will be having a meeting with the client and the supervisor (did I mentioned that I am working on night shift?). I could guess that you are expecting for a typical CEO in tuxedo with a suitcase. Well, not for my boss! He comes on pants and sandals and most of the times carries nothing so if he have his laptop on hand, be ready because that means he will be staying longer than expected. But that seldom happens now. Not like when we were just starting. He comes to the office earlier than us and doing IT works. Let's get back to what happened last night at work. Since he doesn't have the laptop with him, he used the computer behind me. When the meeting started, he tap my chair and asked for a pen and a paper. I gave him what he needed and he started taking notes (that's what we guessed he was doing) while eating my food. Later on he called me again and hand the paper back to me with the picture above. While having a meeting he is doing sketches of us while at work (silly boss). I only showed what he had for me above and will post the others next time. He labeled it "David at work". Where did he get it? Oh, David is my surname and here at work they're calling me David as most of our clients calls me that, mistakenly identifying me as a man and thinking David is my name instead of a surname. I do understand because for Americans David is a name rather than a surname, isn't it? Anyway, I am used to it.
As much as I wanted to post a picture of him in here, of course I have to asks for his permission first. He will surely see it as he is stalking on my blog. He reads my posts and certainly knew if I have a problem and will talk to me downstair the next day making sure I was okay. He is more like a father to me. The coolest boss I've ever had. For sure when I'd get the chance to let you see his picture, you would wonder if he is really the boss, not because of his looks, but on how he get along with us. So down to earth.
In fact I was thinking of changing the name of my blog to "They Call Me David" what you think?
They Call Me David is cool. Is your father american?hehe..just curious. I too is always mistaken to have a foreign blood because of my family name. huh! how i wished.

[JANJAN] nope my father isn’t American, I am 100 % Filipino. I too wondered if you are a foreigner when I saw your surname on your profile page. Yup I also thought “They Call Me David” is cool.
ReplyDelete[MISHIERU] Yes, I have the coolest boss in the whole world. Don;t be jealous, you'll have one soon.
[BETSY] thanks Betsy. I visited Eileen's blog to share my condolences. Hope you're doing great
It sounds as if you have a very nice boss. That kind is hard to find.
ReplyDeleteI like the sound of 'They Call Me David', but it reminds me of my brother's situation. They call him Nancy. Years ago he was a big fan of a singer named Nancy Sinatra, and the people at his workplace would tease him about it and call him Nancy. He's been Nancy for over 20 years and even has that name on his name plate.

ReplyDeleteYes, I have a good boss and ones like him are extinct.
"They Call Me David" really sound intriguing. But I don't wanna end up being called David for the rest of my life, that's my surname and it's nor too cool here in our country. LOL!
Thanks for your comments on my blog - I'm back home now & will be publishing a new post shortly ;) have a wonderful day !
