Call for loading!

Dear friend,

the 2nd of May, at 8:30 - 9:00 in the morning, you will have a great chance of loading a container, which is an exciting and uncommon experience!
Be honest: how many times have you tried it?

It is a great gym exercise, plus the fresh air will help your body to recover from Vappu.

Just show up at my place (tyrskykuja 3b) and join the team (so far the team is one, meaning me).

Further more this exciting experience is for FREE!
You don't have to pay absolutely anything and if you don't enjoy it, you are free to leave! (once the container is loaded).

We are waiting for your help!
(please).

Nokia shares at remarkable price


Since I've been in Nokia (5 years) shares have never been rising their value so much at once!
This happened yesterday, and today was my last working day.
Just a coincidence?

Leaving NRC is actually strange.
My first working environment with a permanent position. I still remember the first day there: 26th of January 2001, I entered and from the 6th floor I looked downstairs... vertigo! :-)

I had moments of worries, disappointments and sadness.
But even a lot of satisfactions an happiness! And these are the ones I will always remember.

I feel I own very much to all the colleagues with whom I have been working this time.
And it is impossible I am going to forget them and what I shared with them.
This period is a great part of my personal history.

Let's why since I went out with Ronan, and I left to him badge, keys and everything else... I have realized that I left behind much more than that. And I was sincerely moved.

I feel very strange now... it is hard to admit that a great present has become a past.
To my colleagues: thanks a lot guys!

about the snow... / riguardo la neve


Riguardo la neve...

Agnese: "Mamma, c'e' la neve in Inghilterra?"
Mamma: "mmm.... no, non penso"
Agnese: "Ma allora... allora cosa c'e' per terra?"

Forse e' ora di lasciare la Finlandia :-)

About the snow...

Agnese: "Mammy, is there any snow in England?"
Mother: "mmm... No, I don't think so"
Agnese: "Then.... Then what is on the ground?"

Maybe it is time to leave Finland :-) Posted by Picasa

What about the job? / Ma de preciso, que vai a fa'?


Grazie tantissime!
Abbiamo ricevuto moltissime email di auguri, incoraggiamento e saluti!
Una domanda ricorrente e' stata:
"In che campo lavorerai?".
La foto dovrebbe fornire chiarimenti a riguardo....

Ho lasciato Nokia, con gratitudine.
La nuova azienda dove lavorero' si chiama Nemerix e costruisce chip GPS. Io lavorero' nella piattaforma software correlata.

A presto!
Michele

Thanks a lot!
We received many emails of congratulations, cheering up and greetings!
A frequent question was:
"In what field are you going to work?"
The picture should supply some hints about it...

I left Nokia, gratefully.
The new company where I am going to work is Nemerix and makes GPS chips. I will work in their software platform.

Cheers!
