With my colleagues at SunPower
This was my second year participating in this event. I was impressed with last year's learning sessions so I registered once again. This time there were more participants from SunPower. I called this our "Admin Day." This is the first time that all administrative staff went out together. Thanks to my boss, Jascha Ortmanns for allowing us to attend such a great summit.
A buffet lunch was served for all us. Food was great
An entertaining dance from the Muntinlupa Dance Group

Hi Elvie,
First, this statement from your last post.
>It has a full kitchen facilities
- I like this option when I travel on business or leisure because eating every meal out ceases to be exciting after a while. Sometimes I long for something simple.
Onto the current post.
>I was impressed with last year's learning sessions so I registered once again.
- I like all the topics covered. Everything is helpful for our careers and our personal lives. I like learning new ways of doing something, or *not* doing something as the case may be.
>I was lucky to get two tickets to Enchanted Kingdom during the raffle draw
- Woo hoo! Lucky you! Enjoy yourself!
>Dealing with Chronically Impossible People
- I laughed when I read this title. It’s sad, but true. And hilarious. Not to deal with such people, of course, but that label – chronically impossible.
Thanks for all the details of the summit for admin professionals that you attended, Elvie! I like learning how the wheels spin in other parts of the world. Going by this post of yours, not differently at all, I’d say.
Kate
