Technical Support team building

On Friday 8 October, the Bureau Technical Internal and Response Centre teams enjoyed time out in the sun on a team building event in the V&A Waterfront.

These two teams are responsible for the first and second line support to customers, internal department and technicians. They are also responsible for the programming of all stock prior to shipment, testing and rekitting of returned stock and are used to long shifts and continuous pressure and high demands.

It was great to see them relaxing on the Spirit of Victoria for a change, a yacht that is a traditionally designed 58ft gaff rigged schooner. She has been operating from the Waterfront since 1991 and has become one of the most recognisable charter boats in South Africa.

Her distinctive gaff rig with red brick brown sails and her pleasing lines make her also most videoed and photographed. She flies the Jolly Roger from her main mast and is also known as the “Waterfront Pirate boat “. There is nothing for “show”, this is a real sailing boat with real sails and sailors.

We had great fun and for many it was a first time experience on a sailboat but unfortunately some of the sailing angles did not accommodate with some of the team members (see if you can spot them in the team photo)

The team building event was organized to show our appreciation for the effort that was put in by the two teams with the roll-out of some large projects that required many hours of hard work.
