 This week Max is out of the office as he is at meetings until Friday.  I still have the task of going through the fcs.kundenplattform and making sure that everything that needs to be linked is linked.  It is very tedious work as the plattform is huge and it gets hard to stay focused after a while.  I have already worked on this once and linked about all I could, so now I am just double checking my work and making sure that I didn't miss anything.  Again it is very tedious work but it has to be done.  

 

When I would take breaks from working with the kunden plattform I would talk to Franz.  We would talk about everything from economics to his life to his experiences to mine.  We started off by talking about soccer actually and it was fun to talk with someone else who is passionate about soccer.  Franz then told me about his experiences when traveling to India and also when he drove a bus for a Indian band around Europe for two months.  We then talked about Russia and how Russia is seen in the US as compared to how it actually is.  I always have seen Russia as this poor dirty country whose economy and government is falling apart.  This was true but not as much now adays.  Frany told me how because of the natural resources in the country they are in fact quite rich but don't always show it.  I also learned that from Frany's experiences with people from Russia that they are in fact quite humble and gracious people. 

 

You can really learn a lot about someone just by showing the least ammount of interest, I learned more from just talking to Franz then I could have in some class. 

 

MAx actually returned to the office on Wendesday when I was there and he had a list of things for me to do.  I finished likning a couple more facts under the glossary for the FCS kundenplatform and Max said that he wanted me to fix up the form that I had been working on.  He wants me to include a drop down box into the form and have the customers choose which area of interest they have to work with factline.  There was a point in time when I was able to have the computer programming skills to pull this off but that was over 5 years ago and never knew the information would have been useful until now.  I get how computer programming works but I have no idea how to do this project.  I told Max this and I reassured him I would need help with this project, so he had me contact Milena to help out with the project.  I also looked at other competitors forms to get a general idea of how one is supposed to look.  Having to work on then rework on a project can get easily frustrating but it is important to keep bettering your work so then at some point it will be perfect.
