First Full Day of Work

I had a nice full day of work today!  I am quite impressed with my lack of jet lag at this point.    My luck, I will probably get destroyed by it tomorrow.

We have a store opening officially this Friday.  I got to walk the store and give my feedback today. Then, I spent some time at our store that is already open.   It is an awesome store.  We carry some very random things in China:  message chairs, water softeners and heaters, toilets, TONS of Asia cell phones.  It is very interesting.

I went to lunch at a real Chinese restaurant today.  Yeah, I ate with chopsticks, it was painful.  I couldn't actually told you what I ate, all I know is that it had lentils in it.

I spent the rest of my day at the store I will call my own.  It is our third store in China and we plan to open it in two weeks.  The store name is Bai Ba Ban.  The store manager is pretty new into our company and I have been charged to be his coach.  It will be some interesting work, that I can guarantee.

I am about to go out for dinner.  Who knows where I will end up.  I am meeting up with my future roommate (I will be moving in tomorrow).  He is going to show me the local spots.

Wish me luck!

Blog is a great idea. I imagine you will not be able to keep it up daily but highlights will be great. Let us know when you have a permanent (relatively speaking) address.
