The king of Junk

wanna go home

It's almost 9pm, and I'm still at work.
This is not so usual for me, since I have decided to leave office at 8pm at latest.
I've been super busy working this week, since one of my co-worker is out of office for 10 days. She's in Tunisia now.
GAH!
Also another co-worker is, I would say the truth, he is sooooo useless.
Because he is useless, I have to follow up his work... and he leaves office much much earlier than everyone else... NO FAIR~~~~~~!!!!!!!
I don't wanna keep complaining, so let me talk about the current job I'm dealing with right now, since I'm doing nothing but waiting for a reply from a lady in JNB. (I don't like the time difference... I can only get replies from local agents only at night time in Japan.... since they start working when we are about to leave office.....)

* My biggest job is to arrange a photo shooting trip in Africa for 3 months, for a professional photographer. This is such an interesting job, but I've been having a tough time of collecting information from South Africa, Zimbabwe, Zambia, and Namibia...
My client will leave Japan on 15/MAR which is next week, but most of important information he needs are still blank.... oh well, at least the first place he will visit is Victoria falls and we have enough succeeded in arraning this part. This is going to be a loooooong project, I will have to stick to this trip for 3 months from now on....
Yet, I'm having a pride in this project, since communicationg with such a great photo grapher is very rare and I get inspired by him everytime I visit his office.
I like to listen to people who knows what's important to themselves and doesn't lose a sense of making a good decision. He is that kind of person.

* Also I've been dealing with some tours to Egypt & Turkey for handicapped people. Making this kind of trip takes 4 or 5 times more efforts and time than regular trip, since most of the passengers are in thier wheelchars, and that restrict them from visiting some sightseeing points, and staying at some hotels because of the facilities. So there are countless matters to consider , before materializing the trip. It's hard, oh yes, it is. But I kind of like it better than a regular boring trip. Coz some of the passengers in wheelchairs had never even dreamt of visiting Pyramids in Giza due to the too many troubles they may have to take, causeing by thier handicap. So their satisfaction is much bigger than ordinary clients. That makes me feel like I did something very delightful thing to someone's life.

* I'm also trying to propose a new style of trip in Istanbul. Since I like to experience the local life, communicate with local people, rather than visiting famous sightseeing points, I wanted to make a trip that gives the clients a chance to experience the culture. And I have made a model plan of 6 days stay in Istanbul, that can allow the clients to visit local house in Istanbul to learn local Turkish food! Doesn't it sound fun??? It does, at least to me. I have submitted this plan to several agents, and they seemed very interested in it. Yet, it will take a long time to let this plan materialized and sold as a productive tour plan. Let's see.....

ok, now looks like I've got a mail from Egypt & South Africa~~~
I'm gonna beat these message immidediately and head myself to my home~~~
