In 2002, a lot of people moved on from Wilco Tokyo, largely due to redundancy. I was personally hit in September. However, Tomoko-san left voluntarily to join Nikko Salomon Smith Barney (now Nikko Citigroup) and this photo was taken at her leaving party.
On the left, Aki, Tomoko-san, Taka; on the right, Haley, Mark and handsome Joel over there.
