First Day Working in Shanghai


Got up at 7:00 AM this morning. A helping maid cooked breakfast for us, and does all the laundry while we all go to work. My company sent a car to drive us to the office, which is about 15 minutes drive or 3 km away from where we stayed.

The first day at work was of course very tense. I almost spent the entire day under special attention of the general manager, in order to find a solution for one of his big business. I think I was doing okay though. The first day passed quickly, and people leaves the office quite on time. The GM and several local staff had a welcome party for us at a decent restaurant this evening. When we got home, on the table the maid had prepared dinner for us. There were even peaches that are juicy and sweet!
