Malaysia here I come!

Finally, after 4 months of worrying where I will be working during the outplacement, I got the news. I will be working in Kuala Lumpur for six months, beginning in April. The opportunity to live and work for 6 months in Malaysia is something that I’m very much looking forward to:-)

The trainee life in Stockholm

The trainee-life in Stockholm has been a good one. It has been very exciting, informative and developing; but also stressful and confusing at times. I guess that’s all part of being a trainee and moving to a new place. I have now worked at Canal Digital in Stockholm for more than four months. Somehow, that sunny October day when I packed my bag and got on a plane from Oslo to Stockholm seems so close, and yet so far away. The days and weeks have come and gone incredibly fast, and in another two months my stay here will be over. But the journey doesn’t end just yet. My next stop on the trainee-road is Kuala Lumpur, in the beautiful country of Malaysia (- Truly Asia!).

Out of office

My past four months in Telenor has been what I call, a visit in an amusement park. Some rides were fun, some were frightening, and often some we had to queue for a long time before we get our turn.

The day of your life

The male team members exchanged nervous looks as their female counterparts escorted them to the waiting taxi at Fornebu. Instructed to bring warm, water proof clothing, torches, large backpacks, but also tight jeans, casual shirts, and blazers in true 1980s’ style, it is safe to say that the confusion was total. The day of our lives could begin!

Malaysia – Truly Asia!

After a staggering week with the other trainees in Kuala Lumpur, I sit here at Fornebu as a gently tanned and a slightly more reflected man. What a feeling :-)

Improbability reached maximum level…

Okay! You are totally crazy, but at least funny! That would be my answer, if somebody from my university had prophesied to me the following scene one year ago.

A Strange Game of Croquet

It was the strangest game of croquet I had ever played. Not that I often play croquet, but I still find playing croquet with the queen a little strange, especially as she constantly orders the solitaire soldiers or just anyone to be beheaded, not to mention the flamingo mallets and the hedgehog balls. In the middle of this chaos, the telephone suddenly rang. It might be the White Rabbit, the Hatter or even the Cheshire Cat I thought, before I picked up the speaker.

A Journey

Hi, in this blog, I will deviate from the usual job related issues which tend to become boring after some time not only for you as a reader but also for me as a writer. However I’m in luck as January had been a pretty happening month for the trainees. Wondering what could have taken place?
