Last but not least,
~ Our team - Rock Star with Leader, Jay Kim ~

23-10-2015(Friday) -  Are you free on this weekend? Me: Yes!!! HR: OK. Join!!! Do you know what activity you join? Me: Don't know! But, you say "YES". These week is the third week I joined the new company, I feel myself is very lucky, I able to join their activities - Away day 2015 (3 days 2 nights in Paradise Valley. Half day work on Friday. After lunch, we went to Semenyih.

Activities
Day1 - Abseiling, Flying Fox, Climbing Colorful Tower
Day2 - Tug of War, Obstacle Wall, Raft Building, Kayak Queen, Water Polo, Singing (Karaoke)
Day3 - Broga Hill Hiking

P/S:All activities are very challenging, especially climbing the watch man tower. Climb..climb..climb..until the green line, I unable to reach the top. My hand is shaking when I hold too tightly. Once I left my hand, I fall down and my leg hit the wall. Try again, hold again, push myself. (Repeating 3 times). At the end, I had give up and feel sad >.<. I can't do it. There are many people are injured during activity, but they still keep fighting until the last games, this called TEAM WORK SPIRIT. My muscle get sore after I workout, but anyway, I still have fun in this trip. [PLAY HARD * WORK HARD]

- A word of HOPE in a world of HURT - 

05-08-2015 (Friday) - Busy! Busy! Busy! Life like no life. Fighting your work every night and every weekend. At the end, you get comments from your boss. Words is powerful either it can heal a person or hurt a person. But, I not sure the way you talk to me is to encourage me / motivate me or hurt me / depressed me. "Now, company only has one worker. You think you are prefect already. You don't have competitor that why you don't have improvement. One day, if a new worker coming. He/she is better than you. You will put at the side". Since the boss want to challenge with you. You just have to take the challenge. Every day, I'm writing report to him. Every morning, I'm busy thinking what I need to write? If I write less (means I'm not doing my well). If I write many (means I'm hardworking). Anyway, I feel crazy to write those report. (The most crazy part is I need to write down every conservation with my customer).

I feel my work is overloaded. "Why you can't do it?". Answer: Time limited. After few minutes, "Why you can't do it? You can't even create a database to store the data, you told me you are Master degree's graduate?". Sir, If I can't do it, I think I should not be here and I need to go back to my university and study back again. The same word is repeat and repeat again. "You are Master degree's graduate".."You should know this xxx that xxx".

Boss given me a short period of time to finish the project (10 days). Yes, I should finish it on times. But during this short period of time, there are so many tasks coming up. Boss may not be aware how much time is required to complete all the tasks. It is not easy to deal in this kind of situation. Company has 9 customers, and I involve 6 customers). Boss always say fighting until the end when the war come. A war - many people fighting. But, one worker fight with many customers. At the end, the worker will die on the war.

"I pay you high salary and now, you did nothings for me, you make lose company all the times". Yes, I should not stay here anymore. You may hire a low salary worker and make profit for company. Anyway, my goal is not making lose but is making the business more profitable. 

Last but not least, a good company, they will not scare the turnover is high. Other the other hand, a bad company, the boss should know why your worker can't stand even 1 year and run away. 

Interview In KL

After Hong Kong and Macau trip, I stayed in KL for awhile until I found my job. This is the 8th company which I interviewed. I had two interview in KL.One of the company offer me which I'm doing now. 

During the Interview
1) Why you work two years already and you still haven get promoted? 
[Even though, my senior is working more than 5 years and yet still haven get promoted]

2) What is your hobby? 
[I'm out going type. I like to join activity such as Tzu Chi activity and etc.] (Interviewer: I not feel that you are out going type) [In my mind, you are the person who ask the question but not willing to accept my answer - no people will understand myself more better than me]

3) Your knowledge only have 30%.
If I have 100% knowledge. Why I need to jump company seeking for new technology? One of my reason for resigning.

4) Should a programmer do testing?
My answer is Yes. [Interviewer: You answer is wrong.] In my past working experience as programmer, every times I need to do testing when develop the system. In my mind, "YOU" should understand every company culture, not only your company culture. Other company culture, some workers have to "ONE LEG KICK" means one person have to do all the things. Most of the times is ONE LEG KICK, even though is big company or small company.

The way I having actually...
I trying hard to find my job although I know the path is tough. 
[At the end, my mum told me - Don't simply apply job and don't simply attend interview! Choose good company for interviewing enough!] 

Start working life in KL
The first day, I went for work. I just noticed that my company just have 4 person (2 bosses + 2 workers) include me. I asked my colleague - how about others colleague. He just told me, early we have 8 workers but the boss fired them one by one and now, left me one workers only. This company is a leading system solution provider of ERP system. 

Without understand/explain the system flow / databases, the boss assigned tasks to me. The first working day, I need to start coding. I feel very blur when I doing the system. I tell myself I can't continue sitting there and do my coding without knowing the output. So, I decide to ask him next. Finally, I able to solve the problems. Everyday we had meeting, every times, we also scolded by the boss and now, I had no feeling at all. 

During the last meeting, my colleague was scolded by the boss. "Why you no ask question?" because "You don't know ask what question". Feeling all the boss is "FUNNY", however we do right or wrong. At the end, still wrong. When my colleague finish the job within one day. Boss not trust him and he think his worker not do the job properly. On the other hand, if we delayed the task means we are not capable to do it.

Colleague: This is the first times, I stayed so late in office (10pm) after 9 months work. The next day, we OT until 12am (midnight). What a crazy job!!. My brain very tired, should I continue it at midnight? That night, I feel very dizzy and my heart feel very cold. I don't know what will happen next. My best friend told me, please stop it and having a good rest. She will pray for me.

Interview In Singapore

After I resigned my first job. I applied Singapore's job. I feel very happily when I received the call from Singapore - call for interview. After few days, I flight there. These few days, I stayed in my friend house. The first day, early morning, I went for interview. When I reached the office, the office not yet open. Once I saw the office, it give me a bad impression. (Please Google the place first, before you go. Don't just read the company profile.) Never mind, we can't decided anythings just by looking the cover. When the office opened at 10am. Once I entered the company, I saw 90% of workers have Tattoo, wearing the short skirt as well as fashion hair (dye color hair). After 10 minutes, all the workers went out for smoking. That times, I feel curious whether this is IT company or "Black" company. Boss: "Please come in." During interview, the boss not looking my cert at all. (Why I study Master? Why I need to attend many Professional course in order to get the cert?). Anyway, he just gave me an offer $1600 to $2400. He told me this is foreigner worker (Vietnam, Indonesia, Thailand, Myanmar and Malaysia) salary list. You can immediately start work if you accept. Overall, it just took me 3 minutes for interviewed. At the end, I not accept the offer. 

Life In Singapore

Taking the bus/MRT going back to home. I saw the old folks rush for bus. Some of the old folks are caring a lot of stuff. In Singapore, most of them used MRT/Bus. Hence, I feel great to stay in Malaysia. We have our own car, we can go here and there. But, why nowadays teenagers like to go Singapore (Malaysia economics is really bad! When overall market is green, only Malaysia is red. When others are red, Malaysia still maintain as red. Thus, Malaysia economics become worse and more.) Singapore's currency is high. When your friend work one months in Singapore, you need to work two and half months in Malaysia. If your salary is low, maybe you need to work three to four months. After I stayed with my friend, I start to feel demotivated as every day I heard "boring" from them. Everyday, 5.30 am wake up and 8.00 pm came back from work. Some of them working 7 days. "Why you want to walk back instead of taking MRT which is more faster and save times?". I don't want to take MRT because I no need to go back home early. If I go back home, I also nothings to do. What is the purpose of life. They don't know how long to stay in Singapore. No choice, they still have to stay there because of earning of "fast money".

- Last Day But Not Ending -

30-6-2014 (星期一) - 终于到了这一天, 我要走了。伤心?高兴?短短的一个月,有六个人离职了,简直是太历害。接下来的几个月都有人辞职。这时的我,悄悄地走了,正如我悄悄地来,我挥一挥衣袖,不带走一片云彩。有位同事对我说,你就不好了,悄悄地走了。工作的最后一天,还要加班,大约七点左右,我才找到 Root Cause。这时,看看左看看右,沒人了,全部都走了。我也走了。再见!

P/S: 以前的我,放工了,看见同事还没有放工,就会问有什么事我可以帮忙吗?当我迟放工时,解决不到,想找个“神”来帮帮我,结果,公司都没有人了。你怎样对待别人,别人就会怎样对待你。同事们都说我的leader很好。她喜欢就出现,喜欢就不见。我的心喜欢就吓一下,喜欢就跳一下。

Anyway, happy to gain working experience. 哈哈 ^_^

10-3-2014 (Monday) - After master graduation - think, after Chinese New Year - think again, after Kuching trip - think again and again. Given myself one week time to rethink and rethink. Finally, I make a decision and I choose not to stay here any more. 

I did not state any reason on my letter. I did not expect any things from my boss. I just waiting her to proceed to my letter, and waiting her signature. Finally, my boss had responded to me. First day - a) Why? b) Do you want to change team? Second day - Can have a talk? Going to her office and having half an hours discussion. While talking with her, I feel guilty. Third day - After rethink whole night and I told her my answer. She response to me - "I still not accept..What can make you stay?". After I read this statement, I feel more guilty. 

Two months notice? Everyone asking me why two months notice. In this months, I hope can pass my work to my new colleague. Sadness, I just notice, she also resign after I make my decision. I hope I not the person who influenced her. Now, I feel more and more guilty and need to pass all my works (Daily support, project-TDS, JR, Zone Leader for Cleanliness, President of IT club) to others. Some colleague asked me: "You not do support only?.Are you feel pressure?"..The first time, I came here. That times, I feel stress as suddenly I has been assigned as main support. But, few months doing the main support, finally I able to handle it. Anyway, I wish them all, each and every one, success and good fortune.

- Awesome! I like Music and I found a song for resignation - >.<


P/S: Why? Why? Why? Asking myself  - when you choose to leave, then only people will appreciate you! 

5-5-2013 (Sunday) - Again, today is election day. All person is busy go to vote. Suddenly, my family was waiting for me to go for lunch. Suddenly a call from my company..URGENT!!!! Please solve it. My first times support (29/4-5/5). That week, every night also nightmare for me. Everyday, after working hours, going back to home and start to open the PC for standby. "Tik" "Tok" "Tik" "Tok", the times is nearly close to 12 am, off my computer, ready for bed. Suddenly a call (1 am) came again. From that times on wards, once I hearing my phone is rang, I no dare to receive any call even though  my family calling me..@@
The 1st worst case: provide wrong information!!!! How can I help you to solve if you also provide the wrong  information to me!!!! The 2nd worst case: How to solve? Answer: Go to debug code. "Debugging"...When must to be completed --> Urgent!!!Today shipment !!!!..Work without life.


12-1-2013 (星期六) - 这时我的Status 是" When the times comes, we'll know what to do..Worry so much is not the right times now.."真的不想再想了,想越多就越多的顾虑。可是,那些顾虑真的不可以忽略。等待吧。。等待对的时间再去想。。在工作上我学会了很多“Theory”,如:你做的越快给你做的东西越多"。。以前在大学的我,喜欢做得快,教师就会给你更多的东西做。。好高兴,因为可以学习到很多东西。。这时我的同事告诉我这个“Theory”。。就说用普通“Speed” 好了。。看看左边的Coding。。"Dim m as Long, Dim r as Long..etc..看了整天,都不知道什么是"m", "r"...还有,btn1, btn2, btn3, btn4, btn5..神啊,救救我吧..10k (Coding)..我决对不会让我接下来的Programmer 和我一样, 怎么痛苦。。>.< 。。

14-12-2012 (星期五) - 工作的日子真得累的很。每天都要早睡早起。早上8.30 A.M,上班; 6.15 P.M 就放工。就这样,日子一天一天地过去。在这段时间,真得要谢谢 MR. GOOGLE 和 GOOGLE 的堂弟(GTALK), 陪伴着我。每一天, 我都会找他们聊。如果有一天,我没有了他们,我会XX了。这次工作,和 INTERNSHIP 很不一样。INTERNSHIP 的时候,我不会就可以问我的同事。不然的话,他们也会问我做到怎么样了?而我这次工作,我全都靠自己。要想LOGIC,也要想METHOD。有时候,真得很害怕自己做不到。当然,我还是要谢谢MR. GOOGLE。很难,真的很难,有时真得不想面对了,想到都头大了。幸好,第二天,回到公司,我又可以SOLVE 那个PROBLEM。就这样,每天SOLVE一点一点的PROBLEM,我的功课快要可以交货了。

记得那一天,一大清早,头昏昏的我,我的心开始不舒服了。但,看了你的信息,给了我动力,让我掌过了一天。知道有你为我加油打气,我做起事来也特别干劲。:)

工作日子的话题:几时PUBLIC HOLIDAY? 几时有BONUS? 几时有INCREMENT? 很忙? 买家,买车。感觉上,和我在大学的日子真得很不一样。很想念那些年的日子,你看了什么书都会和我分享。而我也很喜欢听你的分享。脑部也不会像现在一样...PUBLIC HOLIDAY, BONUS, INCREMENT, !@#$%.....

在这段日子,我每天都在倒数。倒数新年?倒数?又倒数?到底倒数什么?我很想去最远的旅行,最远的旅行是从一个的心,到另一个人的心,真得期待见到你。时间过得很快,我工作也一个多月了。我的第一分工作,我的第一分工钱。第一分工钱就用去了买(五月天,CONCERT)。哈哈 :) 明年去。。

P/S: 你有认真的过每一分钟吗?你的心跟者希望在动吗?那你的未来就不是夢了.


25-10-2012 (Thursday) - Really total pre-working experience here. After accept the offer letter (through email), working life is coming soon. Before start working, I went to medical check-ups for company, get Employees Provident Fund (EPF) number, Income Tax number, and open an new account. Other information such as working times, probational times, annual leave, names of department, names of position, salary, allowance, benefit of company to give you. All this info, we need to know before we start to work. I only all this info when my friend asking me.

***SPEICAL***
The first day of working day - start with orientation..
P/s: Feel like enter to University life, Minggu Aluan Pelajar - for new student.

12-10-2012 (Friday) - Happy 2nd Graduation Anniversary (10-10-10). I like the date ten, ten, ten..A bit disappointed when I unable to attend the convocation this year. Never mind, I aim for next year convocation 2013. I hope that times we can graduate together. :) Staying in Unimas (be Research Assistant) or going back to hometown (be Software engineering). Yes, finally I decided go back to hometown. I want to change environment. I want to explore more. I will gain 1 year working experience when I get Master Certificate. Not because I not love my University anymore. Of course, I love my University as I stayed there almost 5 years and I miss my friend too.

What I have to do now? Yes, finding job. What position? Software engineering?, System analyst? and etc..(programming, research, analysis..??? )..10/10, I send my resume to the company (Ipoh, KL, Penang, and Singapore). I had write 5 pages of resume, compared to my internship (I only wrote 2 pages of resume). 5 pages include the certified program, project, publication and curriculum. I  feel fortunate as my University offer certificate programs (without paying any cents, I able to attend those certificate programs).. :)

11/10, call for interview. 12/10, I go for interview (Ipoh). This is the second times I interview. The first times I interview during internship. I feel quite lucky as I skipped some interview before and finally, I get the application without interview. Interview preparation? Buying book references, ("How to get job easily?", How to improve the interview skills?") For me, all this book is not suitable for IT student (depends what position you apply). Two times interview, the interview took 2 hours ++. The interviewer will provide set of question (query (SQL) , coding (Object-oriented language), logic question and etc.). Each set of the question will took 30 minutes to 1 hours.

Example of interview questions:
1) How to find and solve the errors in your code?
2) If I want to create a system, how many table you need to create?
Interviewee : What kind of system?
Interviewer : A simple system, you just need to tell me how many table we need to create?
Interviewee: Simple system, I need to know what kind of simple system, what kind of data, then only I can decide.
3) Master of science in IT ?
Interviewee: Yes, Master of science in IT is more to research, Degree in IT is more to programming and concepts.
Interviewer: Master in IT = Master in programming language.
4) Do you able to create a system ON TIMES now?
5) Can you explain what system you did before?
Interviewee: In my University, we did a lot of project with different kind of programming languages...
6) Master in Computer Linguistics?
Interviewer: Computer Linguistics - same with programming languages
Interviewee: No. Using computer to apply in languages (e.g languages - Sarawak indigenous languages)
Interviewer: How IT related to Linguistics? Can you explain?
7) This work is very stress. Do you able to overcome?

After the interview..
I feel like I discuss about the code more than interview. What we learn in University is not the required for industry area. In University, we learn the basic programming languages (C, C++). In industry, they required basic programming skills (.NET, VB, C sharp) == totally different. Currently, some newspaper posted that nowadays the graduates without qualification, but they expected high salary. Why the graduates without qualification (3-4 years degree holder, without qualification) ? What we learn in this 3 to 4 years? Interview without success (Never mind, you can gain the interview experience). Interview success (Congratulations to you, you can start to gain your working experience).

The following day, call for interview (KL and Penang). So far, received all the reply (except the company in Singapore). I will try it again for next times. One more things, once you come out from University, you are still consider fresh graduate (without working experience). It does not consider how long in stay in University, helping your lecturer. Anyway, start to plan my future and enjoy the new phrase life.
