So did you make a comment?

"Nice tattoo."

"Got any other tattos?"

"My wife has the same tattoo...!"

"Can I get a closer look at your tattoo... I can't read the text."

:hehe: :hehe: :hehe:

No, not yet. I get the feeling she probably regrets getting it...

I've been at work for more than 37 hours now. I have to finish something for tomorrow morning. Coffee no longer works. If all goes well, I should be hallucinating in an hour or two.

Man, I miss my pillow. :tired:

Go home Tabana! YouLll be having visions of Matsumoto Jun soon!
But respect, I couldn't stay at work that long!

I wish. (about going home, not Matsumoto Jun). ;)

The worst part is I have to survive a presentation at 9am (in 4 in a half hours) with people from Japan and California. My body is kind of feeling numb, so I hope i won't go out like those fools in internet cafe. :sweat:

I think I'll go run naked in the mall downstairs to wake up a bit. :victory:

Good idea. I never had something similar in mine, since I stopped borrowing my parents minivan in high school. :naughty: :beaten:

One of our subsidiary sales companies here in Shanghai is to be closed down, and I've been told to handle all future sales activities of one category of products this subsidiary was handling. In the process I have to prepare such mundane things as stock incoming and outgoing procedures, as well as a price list. After spending a good part of a week to gather information I was told the following:

1. The persons I talked to, whom I was told previously will be transferred to the company I work for, will no longer be with us after the end of the year.

2. I'll probably be transferred to another subsidiary in the south.

So I'll be preparing a whole load of procedures with no one to supervise and administer (it was supposed to be me) and no one to execute (it was supposed to be the staff who are leaving).

There is equal opportunity in idiotic management. :banghead:

Yikes. I think you need to follow senpai's example and run naked in the mall to relieve stress. :hehe:
