Slow computers and even more unreliable secretaries

Today is a day of delays. I needed to get a sign beside the entrance to our new karate and dance studio in Shopwise Araneta Center. However, before i get to fix that need, i needed to open up the studio at 9am and wait to meet the secretary candidate who was supposed to arrive at 10am. She didnt show up. I got a text asking me what she was supposed to wear. Duh! I met the pilates instructor at 10:20. Cool of her to be very prompt. We discussed her class schedule and the demo class for next week. A few minutes after 12, i get a text that the secretary is there. Her excuse was that she got lost, the MRT had a problem and she cant find it. Fine, i said i'll give her another chance mainly because i really need a secretary to man the reception desk.

Finally, i get to run back to my office and eat lunch and fix up the design of the signs. They are actually temporary signs, tarpaulin banners 14x72 inches. One for each side of the door. My computer was choking on the task. I didnt know that manipulating a 1400x7200 pixel graphic would be so difficult on my computer. My computer is about 8 years old. I guess i need to upgrade. Sigh. Then again, i dont do that task often and i still managed to get the work done despite the lag so i guess i can still use it.

Black belt training was fun today. Lots of people were there. People had fun hanging out at the waiting area and gave out flyers. The people who stayed after danced around with the music from the newly installed sound system.

I cant complain. The day was full of tasks to do yet i managed to get it done. I like days like that.
