Monterey Meatshop Update.....

March 19, 2007, Monday - today we received the bids of the two contractors for the construction of the meat shop. the bids were quite similar.... differing only by P23,000.00. before deciding on which contractor to choose, we opted to talk to the architect about the bids. after discussing the bids with him, we chose the winning contractor and asked the architect to inform him as well as monterey,

March 23, 2007, Friday - this afternoon, we conducted our pre-construction meeting at the construction site with the monterey representative in attendance together with the architect and the winning contractor. after the meeting, we haggled with the contractor for the final price of the project..... after which we put up the signs informing the public of the forthcoming opening of our meatshop!!! yay!!!

March 24, 2007, Saturday - this morning until way past noon, i conducted interviews from prospective employees of the meatshop. all four were brought to the site (where i decided to conduct the interview) by the owner of the employment agency.... we met the owner through jon's aunt it was quite auspicious because with the start of construction, we'll be starting our training soon!
