Who is up for a Team Building Event? How does Paintball sounds? Great? You are in? Wow, lets all play Paintball as the Q1 of 2008 Team Building Event !!!

Haha, that was what attracted me, not that it is free but just the thought of joining the guys and gals of RTO for a game of Paintball would be of great fun and pleasure to be playing alongside with them. YES, i am in. No way i will not be a part of it. But something came to my mind, noted that according to the company's policy that the team building event is bear by individual and the company only bear the portion for MAKAN and MINUM and most of all, TRANSPORTATION. Hmm... this is new to me, not that i am SHOCKED that the generousy for paying for the food and drinks along with the transportation fees. Perhaps the next time, no one would ever turn up or each one would come out with 1001 reasons to say NO, i can't make it, who and who is sick and who and who is busy or etc.

First time i hear that, guys if you want to build up your team spirit, coz lets go on a Dutch game, i would be on the floor laughing. Call me STUPID, but hell not that a responsibility of the manager or the company to ensure team work as a team and team achieves the goals and not of the case where each team mate is poking each others back side? Weird... Would you agree with me?

Other than the part where we were going Dutch, the game was fun. We get to shoot, not chicken but life stock, life human running around and not just aiming board. We played 3 games all together. First round, after finishing the game of 5-8 min, i was about to puke and short of breath. Why? Perhaps due to i am anxious at the game, the adrenalin and also the facemask is kind of suffocating causing shortness of breath. But luckily i did not collapse as that would be so embarrasing :) Anyhow, we lost the first game as we were not used to the strategy and also placement but at the second and third game, we were good at what we are there for, to play hard and win hard though some of us do suffer so lost where some end up going home with bruises or a 'curry chicken' courtesy of the paintball :)

Great game with the team, and my team won the game by 2-1. Bravo to my teammates and much more can be achieve if we work as a team :) Later we proceed to dinner, where the details of identifying the venue would not be revealed in order not to make someone look bad and not to tell other people how things could go in some unexpected way :P
