I always hate to go to the women only bank (yeah they do have it there...). they can't speak english well and they're very SLOOOW. but knowing that the "mix" section bank is always crowded and u need to queue for so long... i always end up going to the women section.<BR/><BR/>the women only section in the particular branch that I went was VERY small. and i saw 2 saudi girls working as "whatever their boss ask them to do".. like searching some files, rearranging them, etc. gosh, i found them to be so ineffective! very slow... and in such a small place and not more than 5 file storage, one girl is enough you know! grrrr...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9256104.post-52250702689837726672008-09-06T18:46:00.000-04:002008-09-06T18:46:00.000-04:00risky technology is def a good reason for avoiding...risky technology is def a good reason for avoiding it!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03523641844919145486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9256104.post-34417236238819801122008-09-06T11:11:00.000-04:002008-09-06T11:11:00.000-04:00It's not about charity, but it's also about lack o...It's not about charity, but it's also about lack of financial support.<BR/><BR/>This kind of issue actually happen in private or government compay not in the company under JV (joint-venture) or multi-national company.<BR/><BR/>Instead of putting a lot of money to invest in the latest technology, which also lead to the probability that it won't suit with current culture, they prefer to employ human where the risk were small compare to latest technology.tere616.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08338176884725803925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9256104.post-91867056439350538812008-09-06T09:48:00.000-04:002008-09-06T09:48:00.000-04:00Tere616, Therry, Mulia: thing with gotong royong, ...Tere616, Therry, Mulia: thing with gotong royong, or teamwork, is that business owners know what they're doing.
