I have my nickname, which is different from my real first name.
Well, last month one American manager, Mr. A joined our company. His nickname is same as mine.
Also, we have another guy, Mr. B who has same nickname as mine.
Yesterday Mr. A and Mr. B talked together beside my desk in the office. I asked them,
"How come didn’t you tell me to have the meeting for our TEAM?" with smile. As you know,
almost American likes to say some joke, so that I try to say something in any situation except
against serious issue.
Mr. A said to me, "We're now talking about SUB NICKNAME, because someone may be confused
due to our same nickname."
I said to Mr. A, "Oh, that’s a good idea. OK, at first what do we need to call in you?".
Mr. B said, "He is tall and big guy. We can call him by BIG 〇△□". (Actually it's not the word
of 〇△□, but our nickname.)
Mr. A said, "I'm fine. Well, for Mr. B how about SENIOR 〇△□?".
I expected to have good sub name for me...and Mr. A and B said, "OK, we have already decided
your sub name.".
"Oh, really? Is it SMART, or CLEVER??" "Ha, ha... you'll be... HAPPY 〇△□!!!"
"Oh! HAPPY 〇△□! Such a nice name, but are you sure I always make happy? I don't think so some
times I am nervous, sometimes upset..."
"That's unusual. You can make feel happy for us in almost time."
"Thank you!!"
That's a short talking, but I was so glad for them... My policy for my job is
"DO OUR BEST WITH MUCH FUN! We could have some good results!".
I think that job is job, not purpose but one of means to get happy for us.
How about you? What is/was job for you?
