Joey is from Philippines, worked in JDSU Malaysia.
I used to talk to him on the phone about the processes and have not got a chance to meet him.
His tone, his voice and the way he spoke, had given me an impression that he is a gentle, cool and understanding guy.
I looked forward to meeting Joey in Germany as he is the Project Leader.
But he did not make it to Germany, due to his visa not approved on time.
He was depressed, I knew.
While I was in Germany, I chatted with him on communicator and he told me that he was posted to Singapore.
Three weeks after my training back in Singapore.
I met up with Joey on the first day back to office. We smiled and said "Hello" to each other.
First impression is very important.
Did Joey give me the same impression ... gentle, cool & understanding ... ???
