A battered soul

Yesterday's marketing persentation was BAD. Ziggy hurled question after question at us, turning a 45min presentation to a 1.5hr long torture. At the end of it, we left the room, a shadow of our former selves, egos battered to a pulp. There's still the proposal to submit tmr. 70pages. There's plenty to improve on, and he did give us good suggestions.

Tried calling Taka for enquiries on rental of floor space. Called at 11am, no one picked up, called again at 12, no one picked up. I was wondering if Taka had inherited some aspect of Japanese culture in their management. Can't be, Japanese are workchoholics. I even dialled 100 to make sure that the number was correct- it was.

THEN I went to their website and blinking back at me in my favourite pink, was the following message
