[To be a strong Female merchandiser] by a Girl

Two years ago,I became a merchandiser in a small trade company. Since i'm a female, only trifle was i asked to do, and also the one who was not qualified to attend the fair. I quit, after i learned how to follow up an order, and how to write a letter which named " the best supplier of XXX in China" and never got respond. i b,v%sp1^/w

To be a assistant seems to be the best choice for a female who wish her job relate to international trade but lack of experience, i did so...and started my new job from work for a middle-age,new-rich, and rigor boss. He elevated me , because of my good engilsh and nice looking. On this reason, i experienced the rare business negotiation which is beneficial to my whole life. He hard to me and blamed me often, i had to write the emails again and again till he satisfied, one word of him i still remember quite clearly now that: Cherry, you should know what is Obligation, and how to respond! hehe... i've take the word as my motto now. but it can't be deny that i learned many things from him.

I met Andrew Michael form that business negotiation, an Australian man,with boyish temper which is not coincide with his age,people call him Andy. He was gentle to me and said to me in meaningful when i sent him to hotel with my boss1Y@ X(BfWr.Yd

gm Then we become friends although i fired that rigor boss. He even placed an small order in my new company when the second time he came to China, but back soon. For some thing in personal, i change my job, and as a HR officer now, but i still keep in touch with my mates who still in the field of international trade, i love my ex-job anyway.

"I'm in China to make a big order, lucky i found another solar supplier,good luck Cherry."
mZr5u+CN1A " I'm a HR officer now, and there's no chance to do business with you in future.so it's nonsense to tell me whomever you place an order to.I don't know why you so angry with me, just because i reply your message late?Anyway, It's ending,good bye and good luck to you！"I respond
JS|r X.j5~0k0CT "HR? Horrible Reject?I'm angry because you deliberately left me waitting for you on friday night.and you think its all a big joke.Your a loser Cherry.Bye!"
Vj-~ kTyDW7e
(o }`IQ;M1I]pR I deleted all the message and his number. and write down my story to all mates in fob. As the end of my 2years trade life. I cant help thinking If i still a merchandiser, what's the real matter i have to face to? Just for a dame order, we, female merchandisers should allow that rogues insult us in China?? It's difficult to be a merchandiser, but more difficult t be a female merchandiser.
