Russian Roulette

 

You can't miss this issue's Russian Roulette, with new questions and interesting victims. It's your chance to get to know Manuel Matos, Rogério Almeida and Maria Teresa Costa a little better...

Name Manuel António Cerqueira da Costa Matos
Type of connection Professor
Unit/Project Power Systems Unitt
Three things you would do if you found out you only had one day to live I would buy a blank book, write everything important I have concluded through all these years and then I would burn it.
What you would do if you woke up one day and you were a woman I would buy new underwear
You would still work in INESC Porto if you won the lottery Of course
You wouldn’t like to be neighbours with I’m not telling so it won’t happen 
Something that drives you mad The arrogant stupidity
The cruelest thing you would do to the person you hate the most in INESC Porto That is what he/she would like to know
Fantasy that never came true Travel in the Concorde

 

Name Rogério Gaspar de Almeida
Type of connection Fellow
Unit/Project Power Systems Unit
Three things you would do if you found out you only had one day to live First of all, I would go back to Brazil. The other two would not be possible because I would die on my way home. After all, it’s a 24 hour trip.
What you would do if you woke up one day and you were a woman  I would try to revert the situation, but if I couldn’t, well, tough luck, I would have to deal with it
You would still work in INESC Porto if you won the lottery It would be impossible because I would need time to spend my money. Why save it? After all, life is short, right?
You wouldn’t like to be neighbours with

Someone who owned a pub or disco. I have experienced something like that and it was not easy...

Something that drives you mad Watching the Brazilian soccer team lose to Argentina. I apologize to my Argentinean co-workers. Nothing personal, it’s just a matter of rivalry in a good way
The cruelest thing you would do to the person you hate the most in INESC Porto If I ever hurt someone, I would be betraying my principles
Fantasy that never came true I have no fantasies. I face life with good sense and I don’t like to dream about something that will not come true.  

 

Name Maria Teresa Valle Moura da Costa
Type of connection Researcher
Unit/Project Manufacturing Systems Engineering Unit
Three things you would do if you found out you only had one day to live I would take the day off and spend it with André, Joana and Sofia (3 things).
What you would do if you woke up one day and you were a man I would call my father and tell him he had had a son after all.
You would still work in INESC Porto if you won the lottery Of course not! I would sponsor it!
You wouldn’t like to be neighbours with Parents and in-laws
Something that drives you mad Hypocrisy
The cruelest thing you would do to the person you hate the most in INESC Porto Although the question would only make any sense to me if “in INESC Porto” wasn’t in it, I wouldn’t do anything, just despise him/her.
Fantasy that never came true To travel across Canada in the famous luxury train for a whole week (is INESC Porto going to help me fulfill this dream?)
