One of my works as a researcher is (Step 1) devising a prototype system for research, (Step 2) assembling it, (Step 3) verifying my hypothesis.

I receive support from myself or other people, and have to build up one system of myself.

For that, first of all, I will purchase (order) necessary software and hardware parts.

(Before that, there are procedures to secure the budget, however, I will omit this story this time)

Of course, in order to purchase these parts at the company, it is obvious that I should not make a wrong order (mis-order).

In addition, I must do the right procedure according to the law.

Now,

I am exhausted by this ordering work.

-----

In recent years, in addition to strict laws on purchasing goods, I think that the administrative footwork has become lighter.

Quite often, inspectors are getting into the workplace (it is a hearsay, though), and in response to this, the internal operation of the company becomes stricter than before.

And the biggest reason is that "there are departments overseeing those operations."

However, it was quite later that I noticed it.

From the email address (or name) of the person who is doing business, I noticed that the person in charge of business is foreigner.

However, I have not noticed that the base is in the mainland (China) for a long time.

-----

The conversation used by the people of the land (China) is, I sometimes forgot being an foreigner, almost "Japanese".

"Amazing"

I think it from the bottom of my heart.

The seriousness of truth is against my standing position of "engineers not loved by English".

Of course, I know that the situation surrounding me is too special (there are many excellent people), and unusual.

Even so, I like whoever is kind and to help me.

On the other hand, I dislike any people who "only give me advice" even I don't ask it.
