I manage a group of customer support engineers located in North, Central, and South America.  The group is called Customer Connect Center and is part of Hitachi Energy.  Our team is spread out over three continents and functioning all remote and through COVID has really brought us closer as a team.  This short article is an example of how members of the team, keep tradition alive, as well as connecting 16 people across the continents.  November 13th marks the birthdays of two of our colleagues Susan Orta and @bibiana sevegnani.  Susan is located in San Luis Potosi, MX and Bibi in Sao Paulo, Brazil.  For the second year in a row they both have arranged for small cakes to arrive simultaneously to sixteen separate homes so that we can all enjoy a slice of cake, sing them happy birthday, and spend a few minutes celebrating their birthdays with them. Thank you Susan and Bibi for including the team on your birthday!
