You are a honest man. I have 5 young men given to me to try to get them to be supervisors. Today I had bad digestion. The old Portuguese came to join me for lunch.

Asked me who were the 5 young fellows. I said they were trainees. I would try to get them to work as supervisors. It was the order of my Director.
he said I would fail. They are useless. You waste your time.

I said to him. I will try. Maybe I get 10 and only 2 would be good. I saw what I made off the Czechs and Indonesians.

Early monring I had a meeting with a South African. His skin brown of working in the sun. He flew here because a strecth of bad work and I had to sort it out.

He said, he had a foreman from S. Africa. He had to send him back, he was good but he did not have the right attitude. And the ob was all about attitude.

I hate the guys who stole my lights of my car but I cannot kill people. Neither I can start hating the guys who came to work because he vagabundos stole the lights of the vehicle.

So I have to try my best with the guys and perhaps get a few to be productive. I CANNOT start from the principle they are useless and not even try.

Perhaps they steal my light sbecause they think I am anbother guy like the Portuguese. I am stronger than a trck load of Angolans. That is why I ave money and they don't.

Tivit part of the local industrial conglomerate Grupo Votorantim

Brazil's Tivit May Raise Up To BRL785M In IPO
SAO PAULO (Dow Jones)--The controllers of Brazilian technology company Tivit are planning to raise between 632 million Brazilian reals ($345 million) and BRL785 million with the company's initial public offering of shares on the Brazilian Stock Exchange, or BMFBovespa, the company said Wednesday in a statement.

The share price is expected to fall within a range of BRL16.50 and BRL20.50 per share. Trading is expected to begin Sept. 28.

The company, also known as Tivit Terceirizacao de Processos, Servicos e Tecnologia SA, is part of the local industrial conglomerate Grupo Votorantim.

Tivit said it plans to sell 38.3 million common shares, through a secondary offering.

The shares will be sold in Brazil and for qualified foreign investors in the U.S. Investors can reserve shares Sept. 16 through Sept. 23.

The company said it could offer an extra lot of shares if there is sufficient demand.

Credit Suisse is the lead coordinator of the operation, while Morgan Stanley and Bradesco BBI are the joint bookrunners.

Tivit said its shares will trade under the ticker symbol 'TVIT3.BR' and will be listed under the Novo Mercado mechanism.

The Novo Mercado has the most rigorous listing rules on the Bovespa. To qualify, a company must sell a minimum stake of 25%, and 100% of the company's shares must be common rather than preferred.
