Round 4 Sees A Bit Of Blood

This week left me feeling a bit like the man in the picture. I’ve taken a few good punches but I’ve still got one good eye and enough momentum for at least another round. From clients agreeing to projects and then putting them on hold to small businesses expecting free work (which we don’t do), we’ve even run up against dodgy expat politics just to round out the experience of doing business in Singapore. It’s been one of those weeks and likely to be one of those months. But a few big trips and a bunch of exciting prospects have me optimistic about the future of the Fish. Just a question of staying on our two feet and keeping the gloves on for another round or two.
