Traveling to Japan

Sep

30

I am starting two week business trip to Japan today. I will post some pictures from Japan.

#Business #Marketing

I have a business trip to Japan starting tomorrow. The current exchange rate is about 90 Yen to US$1. Yen is very strong. This makes a can of Coke (120 yen) $1.33 equivalent. Hotel (New Otani, Tokyo) is about $255 which is not bad compared to hotels in New York.

Our company watch exchange rate very carefully because over 50% of revenue comes in Japanese yen. Higher Yen is not good for may travel, but it is good for my company.

Seattle Executives Board Meeting

Sep

24

I was at Seattle Executives Board Meeting at 7:30am in the morning. I am not a morning person, especially since I stop drinking coffee, it seems more difficult to wake up in the morning.

But at 7:00am, there is no traffic going downtown Seattle. It is actually a very nice drive in the morning. Next year, when I become a president, I will be holding the BOD meeting at PSPINC (East Side). That will increase my sleeping time by 15 minuets.

We had a lot accomplished today.

Carpet Cleaning

Sep

23

I do not like dirty carpets ... I hate spots. So I purchased carpet cleaning machine from COSTCO online. I saw this machine on the TV (infomercial) and wanted to buy one. But I did not want to buy it from anyone I do not know or I have never shopped before.

Then I saw it on COSTCO online. I have never purchased anything from COSTCO that I regret before. So, I did not hesitate to buy it from them. I hope our company someday will earn the same trust from customers.
