Kumusta naman mga colleague niyong taga-UP? May pagkakaiba ba kapag ka-batch niyo / mas matanda / millenial ang UP officemate niyo?
Mas identified ako sa mga tanders na sa UP…iba sa kanila retired na ngayon. Di ko rin alam how I will work with the millenials na mas marami siguro ang alam dahil expansive na ang domain ng kanilang knowledge.
Yes. Ewan ko kung imagined lang pero minsan parang may “lukso ng dugo” pag UP rin 
Winner yang ‘lukso ng dugo’!
Yup, marami. I love working with them kasi open-minded and maraming paandar 
Mga naging closest friends ko sa office (across 3 companies - local and overseas) are all from UP (Diliman, LB, Visayas)
Although sa direct reports, mas ADMU and DLSU
Mga naging boss ko are mostly from UP (Diliman)
I still work on campus so yes, meron. Karamihan ng officemates ko actually 
Mostly from the college of science and engineering.
yes, yung isa barkada ko pa hahaha
Uso pa ba yung mga UP-mafia types sa offices niyo?
what do you mean? nagkukumpulan mga taga-UP? hindi haha.
Yung mga nakakawork ko na taga-UP, kadalasan nakakasundo ko di dahil taga-UP sila. Nagkataon lang na magkaka-wavelength kami. Bonus na lang yung fellow Isko/Iska kaya mas sumasarap ang usapan. Kahit dito sa Vienna, yung kaisa-isa kong katrabaho na Pinay ay taga-UP din. Naging BFF ko tuloy.
Agree sa lukso ng dugo. Usually totoo yan kahit di mo pa alam na taga-UP sa umpisa, may something talaga. 
Haha, oo, may katotohanan sa “lukso ng dugo” 
Madami kaming from UP sa office (UPD and UPLB). Minsan pag may bago na medyo extreme pabibo bordering on epal, alam ko na, from UP 'to. 
Pero may mga instances din naman na napapa “UP yan?” ako. May mga expectations din kasi.
I hired a couple of UP grads as well. Ayoko man maging bias, pero nauuwi din talaga ako sa UP grads e. From my very same college. May common experiences that help me reach out/communicate with them no matter the age gap. At oo, malaki ang age gap. Mga 20yrs 
I tend to hire UP people dati. Just because safer bet sila, in general. Yung isang school kasi medyo mahirap utusan, at impatient pagdating sa career growth.
But one GM told me before to try not to hire in my “image and likeness”. That diversity is important for a team to grow. So natuto ako from there. It did work.
I also try to reinforce din sa team, minsan kasi (pag bagong UP graduate), pakiramdam nila biyaya sila ng Diyos sa sangkatauhan so kailangan mo hilahin pabalik sa lupa. Pang akin lang naman.
Hi @arwen - feeling ko nga rin yan na baka kailangan silang i-manage nang maayos lalo na at feeling nila mas nabiyayaan sila ng mas maraming oportunidad kaysa sa atin.
Hi @arwen - I asked them what are you here for? Why did you apply for the job? What are your aspirations? How can we work together? sa simula yan…
And then I write my observations in my personal journal to keep track of their strengths. Malalaman mo naman kung may inclination sila towards something na hindi related sa work nila today. I allow them to pursue it. Pero I always remind them that we are paid to do tasks 1-5 and I negotiate with them. I share all the opportunities at work (e.g. seminars, workshops, etc) and I encourage them to go and participate, and then feedback to me what they experience there. And I try my best to give them the space to decide even for smaller things at work so they feel more empowered and confident.
Madami, lalo na sa office namin. Good thing naman magkakavibes kami, kahit na marami sa kanila ay isang generation agwat namin.
Wala sa company namin now. Ako lang Pinoy.
Years ago, 3 kami taga-UP. Pero, karamihan ng mga nagiging good friends ko in the community taga-UP din. Pinakainteresting kong friends is yung dentist ko and his wife. The dentist is from HK, UP grad ng dentistry. He proudly displays his diploma sa clinic nya. The wife is from SG, also a UP grad. Ka-board member ko sa women’s group namin tapos pareho kami nag-aarchery dito.
Yes. Lagi lukso ng dugo talaga pag UP Alum
Mostly im already drawn to them before even knowing na UP sila. Tapos pag nalaman namin ‘Ah kaya pala…’ haha! Akala mo naman aping api.
Hahahaha!!! Tapos nagbabahaginan kayo ng buhay UP days at nagsesenti!
