Once returning from India, there was no time for breathers. I pretty much hit the ground running after arriving in Tokyo and have spent all my working hours holed up in the my client's warehouse with the rest of the system implentation team.
It makes for a crappy commute--over one hour each way--from the heart of Tokyo to the warehouse on the edge of Chiba. It's even worse knowing my current apartment is just minutes from the main office...
Despite this, I feel I have grown quite quickly in terms of my systems knowledge and implementation management knowledge, and I can see quite clearly where this experience complements my past experience. It really will create a stronger and more well-rounded foundation for my supply chain career.
I hope to share some more daily thoughts as I head toward the Go-Live date of our system at the client site...
