Day 13 - Mar 4 2010 - A Thursday in Tokyo

Day 13 - Mar 4 2010 - A Thursday in Tokyo

A typical Thursday at work, lunch, more work and dinner in Tokyo. I had a very productive week as I think I may have solved our global pricing issue, but my concern is that my elegant solution is over the top in mathematical complexity. Complex problems are rarely solved with simple solutions. I'll present it next week and we'll see how it's received. If it is thought of highly, it could help the entire global business product set. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Benjamin, from Frankfurt, met another guy, Sebastian, from Frankfurt at the Japanese consulate in Germany that is stationed short term in Tokyo so we met him for dinner. We headed up to Shibuya for some Yakiniku and liter size beers. We did the best we could with all Japanese electronic menu. We ate bacon, pork, chicken, beef, lung, liver, intestines, etc... the list goes on... My body awakened me abruptly at 2am and reminded me why a lean meat, mostly fish diet is preferable for my digestive system. It's very difficult to rarely eat meat and then at a moment's notice call on your body to process an entire farm.
