A further gripe to the gripe

I have just received a notice from the university that the welcome party  for the beginning of the new year - where new teachers have an opportunity to meet current staff -  is cancelled in view of the current situation.  

How in heaven's name walking around for a year not knowing who anyone is expresses solidarity with earthquake victims I have no idea.

Agreed. It really does seem to be stagnating, will they organize somrthing else at a later date.

Please add a period and a question mark in there *sigh* I am always typing with someone speaking to me at the same time.

Will they organize something later....

Not sure, I suspect not.
A friend from Aus. who arrived in Nov & is also working at a high profile uni has said the same thing...

Too bad for the Tohoku sake growers, the beer producers, the restaurant owner & staff, the food producers....

I don't think the multiplier effect is understood....
sigh...
