Having lunch with marketing staff for 3 reason: welcoming new member, farewell to old member and announce the new manager on board, as usual, we book Mrs. Fei for lunch, it's quick and less expensive, total of 12 at lunch and topics surrounding by the presidential election, although my wife give me warning calls couple of time and advise me don't ever talk political issue at work, especially in such a sensitive timing. But, it seems this is a “national movement ", you can't really escape from this topic, we are lucky can only talk about it instead of rally on the street and become rebel without home.

Introduction of new mangers is an important session for lunch, S. sit too far away, she should sit in the middle of the table , but at corner she can't really communicate with her future co-workers, but with the courage and understanding, I believe she can't overcome all the hurdles in tangible and intangible way.
