what’s going on
this is ridiculous.
i do absolutely nothing at work. am not expected to even pretend to be doing anything. i get driven to and from the office. i get an escort if i want to walk somewhere, to make sure i don’t get lost. my hotel, my food, and everything except for ‘personal calls and laundry’ are paid for.
when Mr M said that i thought he was exaggerating.
i’m also pretty sure i’m dating a coworker.
we eat together. walk together. ‘work’ together. don’t speak much as he knows as much english as i do chinese. but i’m pretty sure that in most other situations this would be considered dating. he pays for everything and holds doors, etc.
in this case (THANK G-D) it is simply a case of hospitality and the fact that i’m pretty sure his bosses told him to do all of these things.
either way, spending this much time with someone and barely being able to speak is awkward. my job is to improve his english and his is to improve my chinese. boss told us to. instead, we choose good old akward silence.
ps i just panicked and ordered chicken gizzard for lunch.
