well, i'm back from visiting veltex today and........
a few things for u all.....
1)i learned years ago to never critisize a man til i walked a day in his shoes. sadly i did that with javeed. i've said things before meeting this man. After meeting kelly, a driver, mr. mazhar u. haque(accounts controller), and mr matin today i must admit i had few facts correct abot them in my mind......ok , i was wrong....lol
mr. haque was an incredibly nice man. tried to give me coffee, showed me around the office and warehouse and spoke w/me about the company while trying to answer any questions he could. u couldn't find a nicer, more gentle man. i was a bit early so he chatted w/me until mr. matin arrived.
kelly was quite nice also, she came in from a short break as i arrived to say hello to mr matin. she has lite colored hair that is to around her shoulders. we joked about a few calls i had made to the office asking if it was real....IT IS.....lol
the driver seemed nice, just a bit more quiet n to himself than the others.
mr matin......GRACIOUS with a capital G.........invited me upstairs to his office(which is modern and homey)he has a large desk w/a comfortable looking chair n in front were 2 chairs(sorry for the details, just tryin to give u all i have)
behind those many feet back were more chairs/seeting(couch), looked like someones home. his office is HUGE. i'm sure clients are impressed.
ohhhhh......kelly, mazhar, etc are downstairs, street level...the office is in a VERY NEW LOOKING industrial park near a shopping center in a neat little town. they are near the end of a dead end street and the office is in the rear of the building(corner office with lots of glass so u can see right inside as u walk up)
i think there are 3 desks(if i recall correctly)downstairs and there is a door that leads from the office to the connected warehouse which had loads of packaged boxes inside(alot of warehouse space) and very high ceilings in case they needed to stack.
the trucks, i was told were on the road.....(but as i stated, i did get to meet 1 of the drivers)
there is alot of room for trucks and there were many there loading for other businesses in the park.
the office is "decent" size but the warehouse n javeeds office are "big".
there is large colorful lettering on the building spelling out "veltex" with the same graphics as on the website.
by the way,
black leather office chairs and flat monitors(computer)....quite modern
oh, back to mr. matin......
he talked n listened n never once tried to rush me out the door...lol
i finally decided to leave so i'd miss l.a. traffic.
i saw what dougieie meant when he said he can see it in his eyes.....he's AMBITIOUS AS HECK!!!
he pulled up in a dark mercedes, but it didn't look like brand new, nice but not new. kinda square shaped unlike the newer more rounded ones......so bashers, no sportcars u idiots!!!!
in stature he's not so tall, and he wears gold colored rimmed glasses(but i am colorblind....lol)
he carries himself well and has a very likeable way about him
more to come....tired of typing...lol
