Sometimes I think: "I'm getting mad...". Or better: "They are driving me mad". But really, I let it happen, so nobody else is to blame. I'm 47 years old and time rushes by in an attempt to overtake the speed of my life. And life has been calm and easy in the past... </p> <p>It’s over 6 years since we returned from Ethiopia, where I got frustrated because progress was too slow. There isn’t much to remind us of our lives in Addis Ababa, let alone our years in Kampala, Uganda. I'm working at Atos Origin, coordinating the transfer and integration of staff in outsourcing deals and acquisitions. I'm posted at a group called Strategic Sourcing & Bid Management, and we are managing the major outsourcing deals of Atos Origin. After working in human resource management in Philips and Origin, and in essential drugs management in Uganda and Ethiopia, I'm working in a commercial environment now, and I must say: I love it (when I don't hate it)! Josette is working part-time at the department of lung diseases in our local hospital, the same place where she used to work in the nineteen-eighties. So we've both returned to our former employers and colleagues. And we are both engaged in scholarly activities in the evening hours. Josette is taking cultural studies at the Open University and I'm teaching sociology at the Gerlach Institute. <br> Daan still attends the international school in Eindhoven where he follows the regular Dutch curriculum but is getting English as a secondary language. Johan and Heleen are attending secondary school. It's not only me growing older... </p> <div class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center'> <hr size=2 width="100%" align=center> </div> <p>During our stay in Africa I regularly sent an electronic letter to our friends, family and colleagues. Most of them are available here in Dutch. Some of them are translated in English and I publish them all on these webpages. Occasionally I'm writing and publishing a new letter with comments on life in Holland. This way these pages can gradually turn into a commentary that started as the first electronic literature. Just choose the language you prefer to read (most are in Dutch, though). </p> <p> <a href="NLversie.html"><span style='text-decoration:none;text-underline: none'><img border=0 width=73 height=38 id="_x0000_i1028" src="graphics\nedflag.gif"></span>Choose Dutch</a> <a href="UKversie.html"><span style='text-decoration:none;text-underline:none'><img border=0 width=73 height=36 id="_x0000_i1029" src="graphics\ukflag2.gif"></span>Choose English</a> </p> <p>If you like to read the work of other authors, please visit this WebRing: </p> <div align=center> <table border=1 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 style='mso-cellspacing:0cm; border:none;mso-padding-alt:1.5pt 1.5pt 1.5pt 1.5pt'> <tr> <td style='border:none;padding:1.5pt 1.5pt 1.5pt 1.5pt'> <p class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center'><script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript" src="http://ss.webring.com/navbar?f=j;y=winnubst;u=10110947"> </script><noscript><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>This site is a member of WebRing. <br> To browse visit <a href="http://ss.webring.com/navbar?f=l;y=winnubst;u=10110947">Here</a>.</span></p> </td> </tr> </table> </div> <p> </noscript> Here is something about my former work in Ethiopia: </p> <ul type=disc> <li class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1;tab-stops:list 36.0pt'> <a href="Ethiopia.html">information on the Red Cross Essential Drugs Program in Ethiopia</a> </li> </ul> <p> And if you want to know more about me: </p> <p> <a href="frankwin.html"><span style='text-decoration:none;text-underline: none'><img border=0 width=34 height=43 id="_x0000_i1031" src="graphics\frankwin.jpg"></span>personal information on Frank Winnubst</a> <a href="mailto:winnubst@bigfoot.com"><span style='text-decoration:none; text-underline:none'><img border=0 width=40 height=43 id="_x0000_i1032" src="graphics\email.gif"></span>send us your e-mail</a> </p> <p> <i><span style='font-size:7.5pt'>last updated: 15 <sup>th </sup>May 2005 <o:p></o:p></span></i> </p> </div> </body> <NOFRAMES>
