I also cherish several items including the Fleece jacket which i still retain, which was handed over to us at A/P HR leaders meeting. There is an interesting story to share. In 2014, I was at the Vasa museum (Stockholm) with family on vacation, wearing this fleece jacket. A middle aged person came upto me and said.."I should burn this jacket", and walked away. I tried talking to him but he would not respond other than muttering.."lost lot of money". I can well understand since i too, like him, lost money, but nevertheless cherish my stay ( 1997-2004) with the company primarily coz of the amazing people i worked with ( George White HR officer, Steve Miranda, Vince Mazzola, Thomas Mak etc) and the learning it afforded.

Don’t remember how I got this coffee cup. But I drink out of it most days (I’m a hot chocolate, not coffee guy)

HI Desiree, hope all is well!

I keep all my memories of the times spent at AT&T Bell Labs and later at Lucent Technologies Bell Labs Innovations in a special place. There was no better place to be and work at. A pity it all went the way it did …
