Ramdon Notes of Workplace

Pardon me for the non structural post, I was frustrated with my work for the week, after express it, I will feel better, I think...

~~ ~~ ~~ ~~ ~~

In the past, he was the person who setup all the rules and gates, to make sure the integrity of project. In present, his new team do not compliance to the rules. There are documentations located in consolidated location, there are communication emails sent to respective group. But too bad, usually, people will not be alertness to care about it, or maybe they want to take any chance to violate it, try the luck if they can escape from being caught? The response I got is, "oh.. is there such a rule? I not sure... " I know human brain is not like computer, we can not remember every detail. So the documentations been prepared and located in share directory. Come on, as a degree holder (at least), do I need to feed the engineer every time? Can't they be
diligence to get the reference if they have any doubt?

~~ ~~ ~~ ~~ ~~

Human made mistake, the rules or processes have been set in place to prevent the mistake. Prevention is always less costly then correction. When one do not follow the proper rules, the task been delayed, people stayed back till very late. Resources been pull in to trouble shooting. Trouble shooting become very messy, things scattered around. The cost of poor quality is very high. The same mistake had been occurred in the past, and it happen again in current project. Why people do not learn from lesson? The productivity will not been improved in such a case. The more violations, the more rules put in place, the more tedious the process will be. And people start complaining the complicated process slow down the work. Do they ever think the process is to gate their mistake?

~~ ~~ ~~ ~~ ~~

The request come in, the information is not correct, I spent time to check this and that, I asked for clarification. But I do not get any clarification, till the deadline approach, requester anxiously ask me if I can complete soon? Pissed off!!! Everything need to drag till last minutes, why? No coordination among teams, managers not playing the role?

~~ ~~ ~~ ~~ ~~

Manager is promoted from engineer, but very weird, after the promotion, one will forgot what he had been gone through in the past as an engineer. His plan will include impossible schedule, do not care how engineer need to work to complete the task, think everything can be done easily. Yea right, talking is always easy. What's importance is he can show the positive number, indicate good achievement in project, gain the credit. Actual scene will be this, engineers stay back till late, cracking their brain for trouble shooting; doing the build but the build server giving problem here and there; back to office during weekend to continue work, when it should be the time with family and recharge ourselves after work for a week.

Phew.. weekend coming, shut down my brain...

Waiting for Specialist

I had a follow up medical check up of my thyroid symptom. The blood report is good. :) Previous visit to the hospital, I had spent 5 hours there for doctor consultation. This time break the record, 6 hours!!! I was in the hospital at 7.30am. The registration was started at 7am, I thought I was pretty earlier, but after I got my number, the registrar told me, my estimated time of consultation was 11:55am... oh no, have to wait so long... again???!!! Sigh... I went to their cafeteria to have breakfast. They serve vegetarian food only. I had porridge and soya bean milk, light breakfast, so that I won't fill too stuffy when sit and waiting. Read newspaper to pass my time. Buddy called me at 10.30am... haha.. just about time, I was so bored, we went for Lor Mee at Burmah Road, inside Kedai Kopi Hai Beng . The serving was fast, within 3 minutes after order. :P Or maybe at that moment, not many customer. Buddy was very tempted to try this Lor Mee few weeks ago, finally we had it. You can...

Weakening

Why I always have endless tasks on hands? One haven't done, boss assigned another one. And the next day, assigned a new task again, seems like he forgot I still have non completed assignment. :( Oh ya hor.. He recalled, "never mind, that one can wait, do this first." Oh oh.. I hate that excuse. Wait wait wait... eventually, I need to complete them somehow. The longer the time, the more tasks accumulate. He never consider how many effort I needed to complete the task, always think I can do magic, all task can be completed by fingers click. I extended my working hours, try to complete the assignment by the end of the day. Everyday, I will have to deal with many unexpected issues, if I do not solve them within a day, the next day might have new issues, and next and next.... arghhhhh.... headache.... I am so tired, I feel so weak, mentally and emotionally weak. Recently, people around me keep on telling me that I look so pale. I think I really look terrible. I know...

太委屈

工作受委屈了,心情低落到谷底。在办公室强忍着泪水,把手头上的案子都处理好后,已经快九点钟了。开着车,终于崩溃了,一路哭着回家,一直哭到深夜。没好睡,隔天起身,心情还无法平复。回老家的路上,泪水还是断断续续的。 一朝得志,就忘恩忘本。上司曾经走过我现在这个阶段的路,但他似乎已经忘了这工作程序,竟然质疑我的能力,认为我不尽责。火爆了,别人可能不了解,但他是过来人,竟然不了解我的工作制度!!! 我不知道我还可以撑多久。。。 回老家,有家人在身边,感觉好多了。虽然,我不会对父母提起工作的委屈,但,有家人在身边,我不会觉得孤独。
