Community Service Event (Part I): From Level Zero To Level Hero
The day that 10 heroes warped out of the comfort zone of Granado Espada into real life to fulfill the real life quest to “Babysit the children!” at
The starting waypoint was at Bedok Macdonalds where I would meet the heroes to brief them on their mission.
So once everyone had gathered, we began with a round of introductions.
“Hey guys, intro please! Please tell all of us your family name in Granado Espada and your real name,” I said to them.
One of the guys started the ball rolling, ”Hello everyone! My real name is Robin and my family name in GE is… Hrin007.”
Everyone burst out laughing. I grinned in amusement. Oh wow… I have finally met my ‘Casino Royale’ edition!
The rest of the heroes started introducing themselves one by one, after which I gave them a ‘Tutorial Walkthrough’ about some guidelines on how to look after the kids. When we arrived at
Unfortunately in real life, unlike the cool mechanism of being able to warp from location to location in GE with the simple click of a mouse, we had to do it the old-school way of taking a bus. Each of us took charge of 2 kids as we walked over to the bus stop. One of the guidelines on road safety was ensuring that the kids looked left and right twice before crossing the road.

One of the themes of the outing was to talk about occupations. As we walked around the airport and caught sight of the various people who were in their uniforms, we explained to the kids what they did.
“This guy in the white uniform is the one who ‘drives’ the aeroplane.”
“Oh and the pretty lady over there is called an air stewardess. She serves you food on the aeroplane. Whenever you need anything like a blanket or a drink, you can ask her and she will bring it to you.”
“You mean like my maid?” one of the wide-eyed kids asks.
“Erm… yeah… but a really pretty maid that flies around!” I reply brightly.
Lesson Of The Day: Air Stewardess = Levitating Maid

Kids, they openly state what's in their mind... We need adults to be like kids, then the world will be one straight forward fun places... with flying maids and butlers, etc. And there won't be that many complications.

Nice.
Kudos to you and your team of 10 Hrin. Gj. The world needs more of this, what most companies tend to forget is that they have a role to play in society, and share the benefits of what they reap from their customers.
Applause to GE, Hrin and the heroes from the Philippines.
Well done.
wow, a very special kind of feeling when i read this blog, especially it's a official Hrin blog. I was thought all these blog will only link to the commercial issue or promoting the gaming environment.But here shows the other thing, which allow the gamers have a closer look to the real life of Hrin.
Great experiences reading ur blog, hope it will have more and more of this kind of blog in the future.
