Why we need system?

Maybe lots of people don’t really understand why we should have a system in the first place, system is to ease management team to review the performance of the actual production and get the clear picture of the production performance, in order to improve the lack in the production.

Here, they treat system like enemy and always ask me to cheat at the data and show the good performance to customer. What a good leader! By showing people on a good data by cheating, means that we no need to do improvement on our own side. And this company until now still not moving is because of this.

With system integrated in company, every process can be monitoring and tracking. It will help management team to improve their area of lacking by refer to the system. Just imagine a company without system integrated in their work space. All are so depending on paper work, when a thing happen, you might need to track back the document from the store that storing 100 boxes of document and you will like don’t know where to start.

So, do realize that system is important to help your work and not to block you from doing work or make your department bad with the bad performance data.

Friends who like to betrayed

People are saying working in same company will come out with some conflict and might betrayed by your own colleague. How this can happen, this happen when come to some situation and both of you having a different view about one particular thing, and it might affect performance of your work, they will choose to betray you. Scary isn’t it?

From my experience I saw lots of example of this thing but I never get it from the past, but unfortunately I got it yesterday. As one of my colleague who I treat like a friend and started the war of infernal affair and betrayed me and get along with some manager to scold me about I refuse to cheat data to show our customer.

This is a mess as I always get into this situation, and now my dear friend, you can just betray me because of I never cheat data for you. So, when you are complaining about the bad leadership showing by our management, please look at yourself first as you are same type with them.

Thesis progressing well

I can see my thesis is progressing from day to day. This is because I am giving myself a lot of pressure and need to finish in this semester to fulfill what my mom wish for. I am out from the daily activities and always reject appointment because I need more time for my thesis.

Great that I can see progress is healthy and aiming to finish by this semester. As my thesis is about PACT analysis, any one has better recommendation about book because I can able to find only at this moment and need to search lots of journal to complete my thesis.

I think I am going to do the project development soon. So, wish me luck la..

Busy reading month

Busy week, busy month and I just want to free my mind and blog for my rest time.I has been busy with my thesis and extremely run out of time for thesis, I rejected lots of appointment and also give up on my lunch to do the reading and make up my thesis. As my thesis is related to PACT analysis, I need to focus on the PACT analysis and detailed activities for PACT analysis,

I already have a brief idea of how to do my thesis and program, but I still need time to do the reading in order to get my literature review full with detail. This month is the month that I read the most in my life. This weekend need to really summarize the detailed and get it into my thesis and submit to my lecturer by next week.

I am going to hack my head this weekend and get the chapter prepared so that I can start my system development by next week. And I plan to use 2 month to finish the system and documentation for my thesis. I know this is tough, but I will work hard for that as I have no time to delay my thesis.

Debate

I think most of us were staying in front of the TV last nite to check out the debate between Anwar and Shabery.

I’m actually glad to c this live debate as it has never happened in our country before. So, I was kinda excited :P

But there was nothing much to “debate” about as some questions were not properly answered.

Some points made were kinda interesting like where have all the saved money (from the decrease of petrol subsidy) go? Millions and billions of $$ have been thrown in to save some government related companies.

For more, you may visit http://www.thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2008/7/16/nation/21836068&sec=nation, or http://www.sinchew.com.my/node/74338?tid=1

Nothing has changed after the debate, as each party still stands on their on views.

I need to focus on my thesis

I think most of people are thinking that I am crazy about why I never give up on my thesis and I still beck my lecturer to help me for the extension in order to have more semester for my thesis. My study period is over as the Maximum period of my Study already over. I need to get the 1 semester extension in order to carry on with my thesis.

I am quite sad about the fact last Friday and Saturday was my birthday as I don’t really enjoy the moment when my lecturer told me that my maximum period of study is over which is five years.

I was struggling with financial problem and I force to defer for some semester as my mom are surfer by some health illness. This also makes me to travel more during weekend.

My friend asks me why I still carry on as this is no way for me to finish if no time, this is some how my mom wishes and I need to make her proud about this. I always dream of making my parents proud of me, so that I can consider my life is complete.

So, busy year will be in front of me as I need to work hard on my thesis. I might not be able to blog so frequent liao. So, sorry about that.

Duck herbal soup & noodle in Pun chun restaurant, Bidor

On the way to Cameron, we dropped by Bidor for our breakfast plus lunch. And we went to the famous duck herbal soup restaurant to taste the best duck soup in bidor town. the place are cowded and they do serve nice food.

Restaurant Pun Chun

We seat down and serve for only duck herbal soup. You can choose for way of noodle serve like soup type or dry type. I chosen dry type as I enjoy it very much.

We sit for around 15 minutes and the “special one” duck drumstick soup been served. It’s very healthy to drink this soup as don’t get it too much, because after you drink you will feel the heat is coming and buring feeling down your throat.

Duck Herbal Soup

I think this place is good to try when you plan to go Cameron highland from PJ. Please drop by Bidor to taste it.

Cameron highland

Saturday was my birthday and I went to Cameron highland and that was my first visit to the highland. I am quite happy with my birthday celebration that arranged by my girl friend. Thank you.

We happen to take off from PJ by 8 am and stop by Bidor for our breakfast plus lunch at around 9:30 AM in Pun Chun Chicken biscuits & restaurant Sdn. Bhd. We stop there to have their most famous ducks herb soup noodles. After the short lunch we continue with my journey to Cameron and reach Cameron at around 1pm where we stop by lots of stop to see some side seeing place which have water fall.

We went to shop for some plants, flowers and vegetable and we prepared steamboat for our dinner after the shopping. And there are some surprise party happen there for my birthday and thank you for all my friends who keep sending me wishes for my birthday. I am very happy with that even I am one year older now.

I think this was a quite existing trip I had at Cameron as this is my first to there. I think I would recommend to my friend in my future and might go to there again by end of the year.

Should I purposely fail in the projects?

Most of the people don’t like to fail in the projects, they try their best to complete the project in time. Get the project done with no error and complete the documentation on time and get the support job done on time. And most of people like to provide good service to company.

I am one of them, basically my job role is more than just System Analysis and I involved in all area of IT properties in my company like hardware repair, server maintenances, end users support, and programming stuff as well, one word “ALL”.

I have another 2 staff that helping me and always gone home on time, I am not complaining about this as I always stay back to clean the entire job they left out. I always give full commitment to my job as I think providing good service will be the good for my reputation and also can let people who work in this company confident with IT Dept.

Last few weeks, I am struggling with new product system enhancement, and I really need to tight up my time and fully focus on my work to finish on time, immediately I though of request for more headcount. I got reject from my manager and told me that I got enough people for all the tasks. I was like stunned when he told me that. I really work hard to finish tasks on time and now, you are telling me that my people are enough for the company.

Ok, if you had been following my blog from the beginning you should know that my boss got no knowledge about IT and always complain to me that IT is stupid.
Now, this question really gets into my mind as should I just fail the projects and get some headcount for my department? Maybe this is a only way to get extra people to help me on the task.

DSLR camera

I always dream about get one digital camera to shoot some nice picture. This is one of my dreams as every time I looking at people who shoot with DSLR camera and posted some nice photo at their web site, then I am thinking of get one as well.

But my friend told me that if you are about to learn how to take nice photo, I should start with normal digital camera. I do have one, but still not really enjoy the beginner features that the camera provided. And thought of that I think it’s time to move on and get a DSLR camera. But base on my budget that I can afford, I think I will look for some cheap DSLR before go for the expensive one.

Currently I am looking at Nikon D40x and any one having this camera, please drop me some feedback on this camera, I wish to know more about this camera and is it worth buying?

There is no free service in this world

I am thinking of people like to take advantage on me as I always help people to do some maintenance job on their personal PC and home matter in IT. I think it’s time to tell them that there is no free service in this world.

I just got called up last weekend for the Laptop problem from my Ex-colleague, as she just buy a laptop and encounter some Software problem and need me to take a look on it in order to fix it. I was like “what??!!! Do I get any return from that?” My colleague who bought a new laptop for his own use and come back with the problem with the software and ask me to find pirated software for him and he can install in his laptop for use. I refuse to do so as I don’t really support people use pirated software.

I am thinking of if I charge them like RM20 when they come to me every time, I would be richer than now and making lots of side income from that. But kind people only suffering as they don’t really like to charge friend on the service provided. And in return they got nothing from the service provided.

I got one bad experience in my life, friend who always called me for the PC fixing at his Mobile store, end up selling a lousy and broken mobile to me as return and now I am no more as his service provider for the PC problem.

Maybe you also face this kind of friends before. So, just tell them that there is no free service in this world, please pay some money as I am providing some advice and service. Kekekeke…

I have no luck to win in contests

I have been trying to win a contest from any area, but I have no luck to win big prize. Sigh~~ maybe many of you also have the same fate as mine, but I just admire people who always win grand prize for some trip or maybe some money from the contest.

You might say” are you really put effort to win or not?” ok, yes I did. I even collect lots of entry from and collect the purchase prove from friends to compete in the contest and end up I not even win a consolation prize. Sigh~~~

Some people are very lucky in the contest and lucky draw, they can simply won some big prize when come to contest and I even saw a same in many contest as winner. Sigh~~ how luck you are in the world.

Maybe you are the lucky one with the formula to win some contest, and then you might share the formula with me. At least for some contest that you are not interested. I can just starting my winning strike and keep my luck better mah..

Extremely hard to manage end user

I am in the technical team for an IT company for the last few years, and when come to this company I have to deal with end user for their data entry and system control and training. When come to manage end user to disciplinary key in data, I really got problem on it.

In this company, people who using the system are not really educated with high education and not familiar with computer. I trained them for millions of time in order for them to have a better understanding of the application that I develop here and until now, they still keep coming with error. And this time the error are too much about just error, they don’t even act like they know system.

I have to give up this task as I am out of idea for managing this kind of people, they don’t really speak human languages. Their manager are also out of idea and started to pass this task as my responsibility, but sad to say that they never listen to me as they are not reporting to me.

So, conclusion is I don’t think manage non-IT end user is not my expertise and I have to surrender this task to other people who really can make them listen to.

everyone thinking about money

Malaysian spends a lot of time thinking about money. Base on the survey I got from Internet. I think this is common that if people thinking about money, why we need money? I asked around my friend about their thoughts of money.

Some friends telling me that with money they can live happier, you can buy what ever you like and spend more o your household needs. I think out of 10 from my friends there are 9 of them never satisfy with their current salary and hope to build their own business in the future to make more money and become rich.

So, from the inflation that happen so quick and every one is thinking of making more money, what about you? Do you think the same and work hard to be rich in near future. Then I might hope you can make it in the future, because I am having a same dream as well.
