SUTDの教職員の標準勤務は、9-17時。でも私は日本との会議（9時）に合わせ、朝7時台出勤の朝シフト。同フロアにいるのは私と学科長だけ。深夜フライト後の強制早起きは辛い😫

逆に一般的な退勤17時より1時間早い16時には、日本との打ち合わせが終わる。静かな朝の時間、夕方以降の自由時間は気に入っています😊

While most SUTD staff work from 9 AM to 5 PM, I start my day at 7 AM to align with 9 AM meetings in Japan. The floor is quiet with only the department head and me present. The early start is especially tough after late-night flights 😫.

Since meetings with Japan end at their 5 PM (our 4 PM), I can leave early. Despite the challenging schedule, I’ve come to enjoy both the peaceful campus at dawn and my free time in the late afternoon 😊.
