Lisboa 30-06-2014

Week two at work. More team building exercises. Today we became a plane manufacturing company. My my my just how fanatic are people.

The "competition" had four rounds and the first team won the first three. 

We won the fourth by taking a risk and that ended up being enough to "win" the whole thing lolz.

Got to leave at 15:00 instead of 17:00 and went for a wander around with some folk. 

Person who mentioned he had a room for me today said he actually didn't...

I really need to get used to Portuguese saying something just to be polite..not realising that it's actually fucking rude..

Thankfully I have someone I can trust, so that's better than nothing :)

Finally updated this thing for the last 5 days..now time to email my friend and some food.

Hiep-hoi!

Company party time!

Started the day early as I wanted to go to Feira da Ladra.

Got lost for the first time lolz. Had to tap out and get the metro to near the market. Found it in the end and had a little walk around.











Went by my host and picked up my washing before heading to the hotel for a rest, left for the party at about 8'ish and got home at 5'ish. So that's a good sign :)

Best moment was when someone complimented me on my Nirvana tattoo...turned out to be the boss lolz.

Ah weekend! quick and uneventful day ending with a few beers in Saldanha park. Can't grumble at €0.50 for a beer I guess :)

Started the day off by getting on the wrong metro do'h! Still made it somewhat on time though thankfully.

More training today, more same material but packaged differently. It's ok but a bit tedious at times of course.

Thought I got to leave a bit earlier today, but I had the chance to open a bank account, which is naturally more important than going home early.

After work I walked to my host and dropped off some washing and then decided I would walk back to the hotel.

I took the logic of following the direction the metro goes, it resulted in a good 2 hour walk but that's never bad in the sunshine.
