Emergency meeting in Cebu...

I woke up by 4:00 early in the morning coz my boss and I have to leave going to Cebu this morning coz our one of the big client in Cebu has a problem in connection to the product that we delivered, and it is our responsibility to answer their request to settle the problem.

Our flight is 7:30am and we arrived to Cebu after an hour. Upon arrival to airport of Mactan, Cebu we first went to the hotel just located in the vicinity of Central Cebu City to leave our things and some important stuff in the room. We rented a car to bring us to the place of our clients in different part of Cebu.

We went first to Mandaue, Cebu wherein this is the client who has a big problem that we need to settle. We would a have to talked with the plant manager and purchasing manager of the company and luckily they were very polite in accommodating us as their supplier. We went to their plant site and we had come up to the conclusion that we have to replace our delivered goods to them due to some technical problem.

After that we eat in the restaurant just nearby. And then, in order to maximize our visit, we went also to the place of our other big client in Carmen, Cebu.

We would able to talk with the purchasing manager. After a while during our conversation, the manager invited me and my boss in the bar in Ayala, Cebu in the evening. And because we don’t have any option but to agree, we decided to meet by 7:00pm in the said place to eat dinner and watch a live band in the bar afterwards. I’ve been to Cebu for almost four times but this is my first time to have some good time at night that place so this situation is very unusual for me.

But the most funny thing is that my boss just told me that she thinks that our client like me. Actually, I’ve noticed it also coz he always asking me to dance and his actions is very indifferent. The situation for me is very uneasy but my boss just advice me to just pretend that everything is normal. So what I did is I act very formal in front them.

We leave the bar by 12:00 midnight already that’s why I and my boss were very sleepy. We went back to the hotel and then sleep in an instant coz we have to regain our energy coz we also have appointments to our other client in the next day.
