Back From Mexico

Tweet

I just got back from Monterrey Mexico for work. Nothing to crazy expect trying bugs for an appetizer. I understand that this part of Mexico is not yet very developed yet, but I was surprised that when I got to the hotel it was promoting the Internet connection as excellent compared to other hotels. Maybe I expect more, but the internet at the hotel was at best poor. Because my cell phone plan for work is $1 per minute, I usually go over the internet to make a call out (not video and only audio) and my wife back in the states told me that I was cutting in and out a lot. One night I was connecting to work from the hotel and what should have taken me an hour to fix a problem, it took me 3 hours (I kept on dropping on the connection). I thought, well maybe the hotel was just having problems that night. I tried every night i was at the hotel (sometimes earlier in the night and sometimes later and it did not help). That is OK, my company I work for has an internet connect at our plant and it was maybe 1 step above a bad connection. I guess I am spoiled with the types of connections I get. Either way we worked long hours, but we got a lot accomplished. Public Domain Image:
