Ok Samca
Fair enough. You are experienced.
I am basing my comments only on what you wrote on here and have no connection whatsoever with your company. By the look of it, I am not the only one to have reacted the way I did... So dare I say "food for thought" ?
But at the end of the day, you are certainly right, we don't know each other so my impressions may possibly have been wrong...
However, when things don't happen the way you want them to, looking inside might not be a bad idea...
Demanding command just sounded quite odd to me... Not too sure how demanding harder may work better though... let alone with the Chinese
Anyway... all the best
Cheers
