Working with the mainland Chinese can be a VERY frustrating affair. In the course of my work, I deal a lot with the mainland Chinese. The frustrating thing is that they take ages to give you answers, everyone isn't willing to make a decision for fear of taking responsibility for it and they insist on clinging on the old way of doing things.
It's driving me insane and I feel like my job's hanging on the line because of these people I have to work with. Honestly, I'm worried about getting fired because even if it isn't my fault, the blame's going to be on me because they're our clients. No one's going to pity me and in a profit-driven company, who's going to give two hoots about me--one of the lowest life forms in the company?
