Translation

After 2 years in Thailand, I would say that my Thai language has improved, but it’s not sufficient enough to have a decent conversation with the locals, without the use of a dictionary, or a translator. I have myself to blame on not putting enough effort in learning the language, so I’m picking up the [...]

No WP

Our company indeed suffered loss last year, so I can’t get my work permit even if I’m taking over hubby’s business. I feel really disappointed about this, not about getting the salary, but there is a lot that can be done if you have a work permit here. I thought of setting up my own [...]

Interrupted

I don’t wear a watch to work. All I need to do is lift up my head and there is the clock. I don’t work by the hour. As long as I get my work done, I will leave the office. But having kids here is badly affected my productivity. Maybe I should check out [...]

Monthly Phone Plan Soon

I feel that prepaid cell phones are not suitable for me anymore. Previously, I don’t call out much and I don’t receive a lot of calls too. I don’t have a lot of friends here in Bangkok, so who is there to call and chat with me? Thus, a prepaid plan is all I need [...]

Being a boss and business owner means, I can’t think of myself first. I [...]

Dealing with Issues

My friends are wondering how am I coping with my job now. Honestly, it’s not running very smoothly because everything is lap lap luen. I can’t control or take over everything too, and there are a lot of grey areas. There are a lot of things which I have to rely on others, and it’s [...]

Screwed

Hubby’s away at his new office, and I have already had some hiccups in my work. Damn…why can’t he explain everything in details before he left? Argh…
I shall just sit back then. There is nothing I can do now, except waiting for him to reply. I better don’t simple act on my own, especially since [...]

Sales Staffs

I need someone who knows programming here at my office, hopefully, my new sales can handle some simple programming. It’s so hard to participate in R&D projects if the sales person is not technically equipment. Maybe I should check out those websites that specialize in IT job search in the future, if business is picking [...]

Too Busy

There is so much to do on my desk, and I am still stuck with my blogs. LOL! It’s time to prioritize my daily tasks, and get things done before I’m lost in my workload again. Gee…getting busy means something good or bad?
I wish that I can be a tai tai like most [...]
