I hosted a simple lunch on Saturday, June 11, 202,2 for some of my former employees at Trade Development Publishing.
TDP was the publisher of Buyers Guide to Philippine Manufacturers and Exporters. It was dedicated to promoting our country’s companies, products, and services. I closed it after losing interest and focus. It was for love of country and not for profit.
Except for Rose, I haven’t seen these ladies for at least 7 years.
We had dinner here using the same American plates on October 31, 2015.
I am no longer their boss and yet they never forget me. I still feel their sincerity and love.
Rose handles the fleet accounts at MJTY Auto Corp doing business as Makati Ford.
Agnes is a CPA and owned a manpower company which she closed at the height of the pandemic. She spends her time making pasyal-pasyal na lang here and abroad. Deng is a good cook and has a catering business.
I raffled off four round-trip tickets to Boracay. Gloria and Rose won two each.
Thank you ladies for spending time with me. Thank you for all the food and pasalubong.
I told them not to wait for another 7 years to have the next get-together. We’ll eat out na lang in December of this year. Maybe we can have a picnic too.
(L-R) Gloria, Dheng, Rose, Me, Lina, Anne, Hilda.
