@Manila, take that as part of your learning. Don’t let that discourage you. There are good people in tea in China. You just have to find them.
@Ctran, fresh college grads are too green to do anything, esp in China where ppl are not taught independent thinking in education. They are good to follow simple orders only. Ppl who are serious enough to go to grad school in tea are either very focus in specific area or too well connected to be faithful to you, more so when you are working with them remotely. There are also those who are not too honest. I don’t blame them though; in a society where corruption prevails and money and power are justice, morality is but a hermit. In another word, it’s not easy to find a good partner or employee. Like Manila, I paid my dues too.
Searching out great sources and managing them by yourself, however, is the best part of the job, don’t you think?
