The past few weeks were pretty low on news. Studies during the week, some going out and studying again during weekends. The mid-term exams are approaching....We probably will go to study in the mountains this weekend, which would be nice.
Operational Management is pretty hard to understand with all technical terms as bottleneck, throughout and cycle time.
Managerial Accounting is pretty good and definetely useful due to the great professor we have, the same for Operational Finance.
Negotiations are rather fun as we have to negotiate with each other, which causes all kind of funny situations and, naturally, plenty of irritations. I hate to negiate and am pretty bad at it. During the first class I managed to sell a car for $400, when the minimum price was $300 and the average selling price in the class was $1000. Not to forget that my opponent was the most silent girl in class.
I decided to improve and last week I was on a team of some Arabian country buying airplanes from a US-supplier. It was pretty easy to play that role, in fact I was so good, that one of the guys announced in class that I was a very tough negotiator. Not exactly a reputation I would like to have....
Well, I am becoming famous...
