Another story from Kris, overseas:
After the second night in Georgetown we decided to head for Teluk Bahang, a fishing village only 25 km from Georgetown’s city center. The village was only a few thousand large, without any monuments or historical sites to attract tourists, it was a laid back place. In fact, the [...]

I and most of my fulfillment class got sort of promoted at work. Because of our progress in sales, they’re transferring us to the converged sales team. Same base pay, higher commissions and higher potential for commissions: Instead of order-taking from 3rd party dealers (where they get the commission), all the calls that the system [...]

Ho ho ho! My company went into receivership today.
Merry Christmas!
There was another company looking to buy ours: They put in a really low bid a couple weeks ago, which was rejected, and then came in with a new bid at the beginning of last week. They were here all week, performing due diligence, but on [...]
