1dIt remains the last and general one measure of human worth, whether he is also capable of devotion, whether he gets his thoughts off the dust of the working day and create a holiday silence within yourself and can enjoy it worthily. (Paul Heyse) With this in mind, I hope that the whole team of EIT Manufacturing will enjoy the holidays with their beloved ones “off from the dust of the working life”. For the New Year, I wish all of you “Only the Best”, above all, health, fun and success in all your undertakings.
