TGI Friday!



Today is the first Friday since we got here. We will be going to Hangzhou tomorrow, and prepare for the business trip to Guangzhou. However, at the very last minute (which is NOW!) we were told the shedule is changed. We will not be going to Guangzhou this Sunday, possibly postponed to next Monday. And we were also told that there might be another test to be held in Beijing next weekm so we may be flying to Beijing from Ghuangzhou directly. Anyway, the only thing for sure in China is the uncertainty.

Tonight I had dinner with one of my ex-colleague. She left one year ago, and now she's working in one of the best hiflat -tech park in Shanghai and her salary has doubled and doubled! I was the project manager when she works in my company, but I've never met her back then. She and her husband rent a small flat with nothing but walls, and it costs 1200 RMB. The average expense of such small family is around 3000~5000, so it's not easy to make a living if you don't earn a lot of money.
