Be Boss (Part1) Yesterday, I went to meet my barber to have my haircut. He is young man around 25 years old come from Zhejiang province. He has left the barber shop he stayed over 5 years, this time he has becoming boss of his own barber shop. I don’t know his full name , and I never asked, his last name is 韩(Han), so I just call his 小韩(XiaoHan). In China, we usually call someone young than us as “小(Xiao) + Last name”. For more example, you can call me 小杜(Xiao Du) if you are elder than me. 小(Xiao) means junior in Chinese. I have already known Xiao Han for about 4 years since my wife introduced him to me (4 years ago she was still my girl friend). He is a talented and honest barber in our point of view. All most every time I have my haircut from him, my friends think my hairstyle is good. Xiao Han leave the previous barber shop due to the high working pressures as he told. The haircut industry, or beauty shop industry, is full of competitions in China. Professional barber like Xiao Han usually started to his barber career from very young (Xiao Han stated at 16 years old as an apprentice). They need to give more than 500-600 customers haircut in on month to ensure his base salary. And they don’t have usually paid holiday, and usually they can’t enjoy public holidays or weekends because people need their hair managed just in those days. The life spec of China is fast, especially in metropolis like Shanghai, we don’t have enough leisure time to the barber shop in working days. And the barbers in chained barber shops or beauty shops have to selling membership cards as their boss required, the bonus of selling membership also be big part of their salary.

This year's company annual trip canceled. Our company has annual travel every year, theoretically. As plan, this year we were going to a vocational village in Xiangshan (A small county in Zhejiang province, not far away from Shanghai).If everything goes smoothly, I can enjoy some sea food cuisine at this Friday night. But there are always some surprises ahead of your life waiting for you. Our company is live by IT services projects; one of our projects seems facing troubles. Members of that project have to conduct overtime work at weekend and the end day of that project cannot be confirmed until next month. So this trip is canceled. I have stayed in this company over 7 years; I joined all annual travel in my first 3 years in this company. There take plane to interesting places far away from Shanghai, such as Lijiang, Lushan, Beihai, Those journeys are excellent. But the travel content changed since economic storm happened in 2008. Our annual travel canceled in 2008, and also in 2009. In 2010, we have our annual travel back, but our destination changed to those places around Shanghai, no more plane, and the period also shorten from 5-7 days to 2-3 days. We didn’t get our annual travel in last year, and this year’s be canceled again. Hope on day I can join some company provides better welfare.

A special day for fans of Diablo series. 2012/5/15 is a special day for me, and also for many Diablo fans. The latest one of Diablo series: Diablo 3 goes online successfully! Diablo series is a famous video game series created by Blizzard Entertainment. It's one of Blizzard's most successful game series along with Warcraft & Starcraft. I was a university student when I stated to play Diablo 1 at 1999. The creative game experience, the excellent audio effect & video effect bring huge impact to me & my classmate. We spend a lot of time on it.. And no longer than 1 year, Diablo 2 released. That One is much better than Diablo 1, and attracted much more classmate. We had put tons of time on it.. I still remember those happy times when we fighting in the world named as 'Sanctuary‘. After 10 years, the real world changed a lot: I have worked for many years and getting married, most of my classmates already have their babies. Diablo 3 finally goes online; hope I can find myself, the madness one in that 'Sanctuary’ world 

The 1th step to get my drving lisence This morning, together with my wife, I took our coach's car to the 'Liu Hang' driver traning base in Baoshang distinct Shanghai. This training base is only 5mins' driving distance from our home. We passed all physical examination programs in only about 15mins.. Well, in principal, almost everyone can pass the examinations except for those persons who have such issues like dichromasy, color weakness or hearing disorder. And we prepaid all training fee totally 9k Yuan RMB for 2 persons. It's not a small sum of money. Hope it's a worth investment for our future life. Good luck to us! 2012/5/15
