totally spent

my energy that is. It has been a ride the last 3 weeks. I have been to HKG, MFM, Guangzhou and Shanghai. Traveling, working, rescuing..... Just spent. Many different directions and not enough energy and sleep. No detail postings to this site until after I am in the air again next Monday. That is, I'll download my last few weeks of experience to my laptop and when I land in Boston Monday evening next week, I'll just do rapid firing one after another. Yes, I am doing an American trip, unexpected. BOS->MSP->SFO->SMF->....->SFO->SEA->NRT->PVG. All in 2 weeks. It all started with a 2 1/2 days of work meeting on 19th to 21st. Wild imagination huh?

All I am saying is doesn't matter how many adjust and review and align conversations I had with these owners of the Shanghai business, they are screwed due to their "I am better than everyone of you guys, do as I say, and everything will be perfect". Right... We just WASTED 2 months of nothing because of that! My adjust conversation finally went to the employees instead; in 2 weeks, we had what we needed to make things happen; too late. We are pulling out. We put in 100% and they didn't believe in our thinkings. "We are still the best!". Refused to use email, no reply, "If I have time, I will call you because I think you are worthy at the moment"; otherwise, I'll yell at you because I think you are stupid. Wow... found out the "English" writing was not even Grade 5 and couldn't even type Chinese! I lost money in this deal. More later.

On my 4th bottle of red wine in 2 weeks. Or was it 5th bottle now?
