Time difference

The time difference between China and Jacksonville is 12 hours for day light savings time. Each morning Sun-Ling jumps out of bed anxiously checking for crabs. This would be the end of a workday in China. On the other hand, our phone interviews happen at night between 8pm to 11pm, which means morning in China. I get home from work, eat, do the dishes, maybe go for a short walk, prepare a bit, and then wait for the phone call from China. The other evening Sun-Ling and I had interviews at the same time so one of us had to use the cell. So far, we have target American/International companies that have set up shop in China. Though we have generated some interest, landing a job is more difficult than we had expected.
