A brief example of how small the world is

I was doing data patch when I noticed a guy having unique kid names. The boys only have one letter of a difference in their Chinese given names. Pointing this interesting observation out to my colleagues, one of them easily spots the name of the guy in question, and his spouse.

Seeing this, he concludes that he knows the couple which he'd lost contact with since university days. The guy is then promptly located in Facebook and a friend request has been sent.

Work has been stressful much. Being grumpy seems the daily affair recently. I've been instructed to push aside all other requests from anyone approaching me directly to focus on what I'm suppose to complete a month ago. But the effects are limited if the deadline is tomorrow...
