I miss making the kinds of impromptu new connections that only come when you are at an in-person bar event . I started my position at Mercedes-Benz USA , LLC in mid-March 2020 , so I am looking forward to finally meeting many colleagues in person for the first time . And personally , I am looking forward to more travel and activities with friends and family .
