When I first met you, I hated you. I wanted to tear you apart for those whole first two days. You were trying to make us talk to each other, and you just didn't get it that we didn't like each other! Thank God you made us do it! Now, of course, I love you, and what you've done for our team!
This event created a significant relaxation in the tension that had developed between the US and Canadian sites as a result of regionalization and helped us form a united team. Very energizing.
