Observations from the Road: Mexico
May 30th, 2007
I’m out in Mexico City training our new partner, Buserdi, who specializes in document imaging but is exploring how to expand their market by adopting Alfresco and applying it to many different types of customers.
I’m continously impressed by several things:
- Work Ethic: Simply put, these guys work longer and harder than I’ve ever seen. This not only applies to the guys here at Buserdi, but to the people of Mexico as well. The professionalism and pride in their job (whether they’re busboys or executives) is very impressive.
- Aptitude: Their chief architect is sharp, sharp, sharp and has taught me a few things about my own product that I didn’t know. This may not speak well for me, but he deserves the recognition.
- Lunch: I haven’t quite figured this out but these guys don’t actually have lunch until about 3-4pm and they return to work afterwards. This late lunch doesn’t take the place of dinner at around 7pm or so. They do have a light snack at around noon time.
If you’re in Mexico or Latin America, I suggest you give these guys a call (and treat them to a big “lunch” at 4pm).
