AMPER just got real

Hello everybody, long time no see!

No sleep and no time (strength) to add new posts either. Anyway, we just past the point where the Trade Fair is becoming alive. All year long we are preparing just virtual “something” and yesterday this something just got real. The assembly period for the AMPER Trade Fair has started.

This question is our evergreen; no matter you are men or women. It is not only about that private parts of our body, but it shows everywhere. It started with dusk of human’s existence, when our ancestors compared size of their clubs, and it shifted to our daily routine. Every time you buy a new car, you are comparing it to the neighbor’s one. Every time you visit your friend’s new flat, you are comparing it to your flat.

This weekly update is going to be little bit shorter and not that serious like other updates I posted. I had pleasant obligation of organizing teambuilding for our trade fair team this week. When you are organizing anything, you just have to invest some time and affords. Doesn’t matter that it was only for our small team of 7 people and only for one day, still it took about one week to prepare everything. It is still event management no matter the size.
