beelikejYesterday, December 1st 2009, it was twelve and a half years ago I got my official contract*.
When I walked into my office, co-workers S and G had decorated my desk, aahw.
Last week I had been warned by the bossman to 'be available after five on Tuesday'... (did I mention I don't like surprises?) Of course there was a last minute client so at ten past five the bossman told me to get in his car -and hurry, because we were late and it was a long drive-. Then he drove me to a restaurant.... at the end of the street. Funny guy.
We were to have diner at De Kiewiet. Now I designed the menus for this place, so I knowhow expensive it is and the kind of intricate dishes they serve. I must admit this was the kind of surprise I like: fooooooood \o/
In between munching I managed to take some pictures (oooh, and I got presents!).
:-)
*I started working there a year earlier; I was the first person outside of the family to join the company in 1996. Wow, it has really been that long.
