One of these days they will "wake up" to the fact it would help them with sales if they got on others' schedules.

There are entire call centers in India whose employees work 8 to 8 US Eastern Time. That's just their schedule, day in and day out. The employers even pay cabs or vans to take them home at 5 AM their time.

its funny because I used to get it the other way around a long time ago when I did a lot of business with the states when I was a tour manager and promoter. They used to be waiting for me to get in.

It sucks this way round. To be fair though most of my chinese suppliers stay in until well late so we get a bit done between 9am and 1pm our time.

hehe,this is really a problem for you guys, so some companies in china they change their working time,now we start at 13:00 pm and left office 21:00 pm.

maybe the west will have to change its working time to fall in with china in a few years?

hehe,maybe the best thing is open an office in china, what you say ? my friend Nocturnal.Less risk,quality products and more sourcing confidence.

Well said.

Any one who's interested in opening a representative office in China, we can help.

One of the factories I deal with, their sales department start late and work until Midnigh China time to get around this problem.
