Problem Solving

I’ve never thought that I will be in sales and marketing, nor customer service representative work. Before that, I thought that I would just work as an engineer, talking to machines more than human. But by running my own biz, I have to change my mentality and bold myself in meeting up with customers. I [...]

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 [...]

Employer vs Employee

I don’t know why so many people want to be their own boss. If possible, I would prefer to be an employee. Just work, do my job and wait for payment salary by end of the month, and the cycle goes on. Being a boss and business owner means, I can’t think of myself first. [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]
