I am officially certified as a Lean Six Sigma Green Belt.
Even though earlier i had to suffer for the two projects. But honestly i had so much more fun for the second project becos of the other five team members who always have so much jokes as well as the very slow but steady black belt mentor who helped us alot.
The pitch out is finally over yesterday. One project down :)
Looking forward to enjoy the trip now!

Comical
There are a total of 3 executives in my section, one of them has tendered and is serving the resignation notice, one has asked for transfer to another department and the third one is me.
You can guess as much how anxious my boss is towards me. He is worried that i might leave too. So today even though he was very very impatient, he raised his voice at me for a while. After that, he thought abt it, paused for a while, take a breath, reversed his tone and speak to me in a calmer tone. I watched all this in silence but i know what he is thinking and i find it so funny.
He can't get mad at me for too long because i am the only one able to help him in the section. If i throw him the letter as well, he would have a hard time. Not that i think too highly of myself but that's exactly how the situation is now.

CAN Oct 2010
I ate ALOT during this trip. My appetite is very good i wonder why?
Even for breakfast which i usually can't eat much, i had milk oats, fruits, salad, fried noodles, sausage, steamed bun, BBQ pork puff, egg tart... The buffet breakfast at the hotel is fabulous.
The dinner on the first night was on the Manager. The two of us had cod fish with egg plant in hot pot, watercress vegetables, boiled soup, fried beef fillets with mushrooms and xiao long bao which taste so good! The food was simply too much for us to finish so he had to packed like half of what we ordered home.
Then next day lunch also on them at a dim sum restaurant next to the office- my request. We had beef noodles, BBQ pork buns, green vegetables, braised chicken feet, deep fried beancurd skin with prawn fillings, glutinous rice with chicken, coconut sugar cake, roasted pigeon.
Even on the flight back, i managed to finish everything offered to me.
The hotel as usual was fantastic. I was upgraded to an executive suite with free wireless connection. But no facebook and youtube access allowed in China. I had a good rest except for some noisy occupants on the first night and a click on my door (i thought i heard) on the second night.
I did a manicure and an oil massage at a spa near the hotel after work. It was a little scary at night even within the hotel vicinity as there were alot of blacks around. Because of that, i didnt wander too far off. Come to think of it, i was brave to go for a massage alone in a foreign land. The massage place was abit scary too, very dark and anyone could have come into the massage room. Anyway i am glad nothing bad happened.
The day that i am supposed to return home is the first day of a one week holidays in China- their 1 Oct national day. Airport was crowded and flight was very full. I was so lucky i still managed to get business class as one passenger changed his date of departure at the last min.
One small incident on the last day as well- the manager's driver was unable to send me to the airport as he has planned to go Hong Kong for a short holiday. Hence i told the manager not to bother and i can just hire a taxi at the hotel. The taxi driver was around my age. We chatted for a while and i told him i travelled a bit for work. He said i am pretty and have to travel alot (i dont know what he means?). Anyway then he asked about my age. And suddenly midway he asked if it would be "difficult" for me to give him my number (what a strange way to ask). I was so taken aback. So i told him maybe i will give him my email address. I was so worried that he will send me to somewhere else since i rejected his request. Initially i thought the roads looked different compared to when the SM sent me the previous time. I kept looking out for signs that show "Airport". I was relieved when the signs appeared. He added that i can look for him when i visit Guangzhou again and he will treat me dinner. When we finally reached the airport, i pretended i forgot about the email thing. I said goodbye, walked straight to the terminal without turning back.
That was an episode!
