retirees dinner
cruise lounge, retireesOn Thursday, 29th December, our office held a dinner for our senior officer retirees who retired this year… there are six of them. Actually there are more retirees but these six are only representing the senior officers. So out of these six, guess how many attended?… Only two coz there rest are not available for the night… probably they are having functions coz of year end… or probably they are out of the country having vacation… but definitely not stuck in housing for seniors coz these retirees are ex-senior officers so surely they have their own house and probably doing a good business after their retirement.
Anyways, the dinner was held at the Cruise Lounge… and a few people do not know this place… one even came by taxi from his hotel… so when I receive the invitation, I have to ask where is this place just to make sure… well I’ve been here before a couple of times sometimes ago… but I don’t remember the name. It’s at Tanjung Aru next to the Sunny Supermarket… it is visible from the main road but you have to drive further in coz the front of it are their sporting fields and their building are way behind.
When I arrived around 6.40pm… the invitation was 6.10pm… I saw three of my colleagues chit chatting at the parking… and it turn out only four have arrived so far, and me the fifth. I thought the place they going to held it is the same place I had my breakfast before… but when I asked my colleagues if we going to have the dinner at The Cruise Cafelounge by pointing at it, they said no, it’s at the back… huh?…I did not know there is another place… the place is called The Cruise Lounge… the place is quite small, but OK… no wonder they only invited officers. And I did not stay long coz I feel old if I stay too long with the retirees… 😆 😛
