Marco readily admits that he is “a vain person”, and enjoys dressing up in different looks — he does look quite different from the last time we saw him here. If he had to pick a uniform of sorts to wear, however, he would keep it classic and versatile. “It would be a white, long-sleeved shirt with a black tie and jeans, a watch, some accessories, and brown leather shoes,” he says. “I prefer wearing jeans at all times as it represents the kind of comfort that I want to have, regardless if I’m at work or not. It also allows me to be ready to meet up for a drink or go clubbing after work.” Marco says his ideal working environment would be one with less noise, but says that in the field he’s in, noise is something that he should be used to. “It doesn’t have to be a fancy office, but it’s great that I’ve been working in one of the nicest and cosiest offices in Singapore,” he says. Even more important is how each person in the office can play a part in ensuring that there’s a great work atmosphere. “There was one place I worked at where everyone was cranky, so it’s up to you to make it work harmoniously for all,” Marco says. “You can do things like making sure to greet everyone a good morning, or occasionally sharing your weekend adventures, which in turn makes everyone do the same, and thus makes the environment less cranky. It’s up to every individual within the premise to employ positive vibes.” Outside of work, Marco has been trying to find time to start his own IT consultancy firm. “With all the distractions, it’s tough to actually kickstart it. Hopefully, I get to spend more of my free time focusing on getting it done instead of other non-productive social activity, but I also think that I’m at a certain age where I’m happy and content with what I already have,” he says. “The business is just an extra thing that I haven’t crossed off from my bucket list, so I still have time to make it happen. I’m not in a rush.”
