Singapore – Day One
I managed to survive my first day in Singapore, although falling asleep was a little tricky. Hopefully tonight will be easier, as lack of sleep meant that the day dragged on and on. I might treat myself to a hot shower, some room service, and an early night.
The project looks interesting, but there’s a ton of work to do and not much time to do it. My schedule is still firming up, but it looks like I will be out here in Asia for three weeks, returning to Europe the following week to spend some time in Switzerland and Turkey, but that’s all up in the air. It looks like it’s me, me, or me to do the work, as this client is reluctant to take on more junior consultants to do the grunt work. So it’s going to be a very long three weeks.
On a positive note, I finally met a client that I’ve been working with for the past six months. Until now, she’s simply been the voice at the end of a phone or e-mail waiting in my inbox, but I’ve finally managed to put a name to a face.
And on another positive note, I seem to have suffered no ill effects from dinner last night. Which is the biggest shock of all.
