When i am in Bellevue, may day starts with walk in the park with dogs. Then I have morning meeting, take care of SNS and have lunch. Then I have few more meeting and work on the design or review the products and services. When I realize that I have done all that it is already dark out. I prepare dinner and feed dogs then I think about my own dinner. I usually work until 10 to 11pm and go home.

Here is San Diego ... I have no such a routine and it is up to our San Diego staff to setup meetings. Time moves very slow here. I think the weather has something to do with it too. It is a very once to place to visit. But I have to concentrate of helping San Diego PSPINC expand its business.

What can I do?

My business strategy is "Do it, and if it does not work, change it." But people here are very conservative and not ready for big change.

I was cleaning up my friend's MacBook when it stop working. I tried everything but I could not get it to work.

So, i made an appoint meant and went to the Apple Store in Bellevue Square. I waited a little but the tech. came out and rebooted the computer with LAN. After it was booted, he diagnosed the problem to the corrupt file in the hard disk. He reformatted and reinstalled the OS. It took only 20 minuets.

What a service.
