Engineer By Profession

The training officially ends today! yippi :lol: and I am already working on my first assignmenment :mrgreen: I need to update something to do with Standard documenting... so I sat at my place all day today staring at the screen, giving me a bit headache.. it was since yesterday when I first started browsing through my office email and the internet on my 'own' pc (finally! :wink:).. hmm after a month of training my eyes have to start getting used to it again.. the scrolling up and down the page makes my eyes :shock: tired and felt like it's been pulled out of the sockets uhuks... that's the only bad, the goods are I don't have to stare at the clock anymore and I will have something to report to the superiors in the next meeting hihiiii

The recession has made the company decided to stop the night shift on 1 of the main plant..leading to terrible traffic jem and extremely unpleasant queing to cross the main road into the parking area.. if before this week it would just take 8 minutes of my life, now it almost gone to 20 minutes! can u imagine.. plus the crossing has become even more dangerous as more motorist are blocking your way... i may need to find alternative route huh? Also its hard for me to get an easy parking lot uhuuu.. i'm still lack the parking skill huks

First pay slip :D

daaaaaa!!! the clerk handed over my pay slip this afternoon a.k.a my first ever Slip Gaji :D last month was solely training means i was paid to get trained on engine production huhuuu.. it supposedly ends last friday but as i'm not yet given any tasks, i 'volunteerily' requested to continue training on the machine line albeit it's not related to my job at all.. anyway, i didn't finished the training as scheduled because the first part which was the most crucial took longer than expected.. anddd i think i'm tired of training, huhhhh... i want responsibilities, i want tasks on my own... i'm tired of going to work doing nothing... looking like 'makan gaji buta' .. waiting for the clock to strike 530pm and be the first person to walk out of the office.. luckily, today my collegue is on leave so i used her pc hauling through the company's website.. read forums etc etc etc... i wonder when can i get my own pc huhhhh buhsan!

To add to that, my ooo-yeah-new-phone (bleghhhhh) gone hairwired again, it can't read or detect the memory card slot in, so i can't use the applications in there... although by any chance it reads the memory card, the applications still cannot run huhhhhhh geram! baru je anta install balik kat kedai semalam! grrrrrrrrr!! i don't think the fault is on the card, hguhhhh maybe i should ask them to change to a new phone ngeheee

ooo anyway, i'm already 24 now (haaaaa!!! too fast!) no one wishes me at the office which kinda sad really uhuks~~ and i wasn't felt very well on the day.. but thanks to u guys who wished me on my birthday! thanks a lot! (big hug :D) and biggest thanks to my sis and BIL for surprising me with 2 big slices of Chocolate Indulgence and Hazel Cheese cakes ... complete with candles blowing some more ^_^... heeee it was soo long time ago i blew a canle on my birthday.. arigato kuzaimass!!!

Honestly, i can't accept the fact that i am already 24 (hahaaa perasan budak lagik huh?) the biggest thing annoys me is 'marriage'... some of my circle friends are settling down soon.. at least getting engaged.. frankly, i can't see myself sharing life with someone else, i am enjoying the single life at the moment, i am happy being 'selfish', taking care of my own needs, no one else.. like no one business.. be friends with anyone even the guy who always park his car next to mine, guys in lines, at the offices regardless of status.. one of my training instructor asked the hard to answer question "bila nak kawen"... i don't have the answer really, just "not at the near future i suppose... tengokla 4, 5 tahun g ke" and he gave me the frown look... "ish lambat sgt tu, umor awak skrg da 24, perempuan kawen 25, 26 ok" huhhhhh blur... he got point i agree when thinking back at the 'age number', but what's important is 'the right guy at the right time'

My First Day ^_^

How was it? EXCITING! :D I went out home earrrlyyyy in the morning.. goshhhh it was like fasting month, i awake at 545am.. more, i kept rousing last night to check the time, afraid of overslept.. yeah me wake up at 6?? naaaaa ... Got out from home at 7am.. worried of traffic jam, but i ended up arrived at 720 huhuuu... road seems pretty clear and easy for amateur driver, me that is *wink* as well as the empty parking area made things easy..

I was quite surprised to learn that it was not just me reporting for duty today.... stupid ha? huhuhh... it's the start of the year la! there were 10 of us and only 2 are fresh grads! others are quite experienced at least compared to me.. and then we were joined by another 5 whose already started their job and one of them was a friend i knew during the kelana konvoy last summer huhuuu... it was really cool to be among totally strangers.. i like..  tomorrow i heard a senior back in KMS will be joining us... what a small world it is kan?

hrmmm so this week will be totally an induction week... talks, tour.. and yeah we will be going to the factory in Perak this thursday! yippieeee! i love move move and move... static? no no! today full of talks.. from the preview of the company to the corporate communication and HR.. finally before went back home we were met up with our 'Buddy' for this whole probation period... so that we will feel more at home when joining the appointed department.. my buddy is ok.. i think i can move along with him pretty well... I just don't like the way he looked at me though huhuuu...  we'll look into it later how it goes.. after chatting with him for a while, i was even more enthuastic to start my job there heheeee :D

Anyway, being 'me', i fooled myself few times today.. gaaaaaa... so fresh grad, no EPF... need thumb prints... it was ackward... i can't remember when was the last time i did it... i was so weird the Mr.  in charge asked me to stand and there... hahaaa semua org gelak... then after lunch (oooo yeah i was surprised to look at the food prices! one lauk for 2.50??? gagagagaga!! maybe it's just me ...being used to not live in city area kah3.. i have no idea how food price ranged here).. anyway after lunch i've got to go to one department to settle a form, i forgot my birth certificate number anyway.. so as any other office, only permitted person are allowed to get in, so i just followed a guy walking into the office and when i was in, 2 of the officers blurted "aik camna boleh terlepas nih?" aku sengeh je la yg termampu huhuuu... yap i forgot how the can so easily spot me as i didn't wear the uniform... siap kemeja bunga2 lagi aiyokkkkkkk seriouslyyy first timer! lastly, when we were discussing about the 'asset declaration form', i voiced out a question "macammana dengan kereta pemberian oleh mak?" noticed anything strange there??? Proper Languange! hahaaaa... everyone laughed again.... duhhhhh i think i'm very reckless sometimes... huhuuu...

there it goes... my very first day towards my life career... i know my life will change completely after this and i am starting to love it! daaaaaa look forward tomorrow!

p/s: can anyone teach me how to do smileys here? heheee very much appreciated!

Engine Transmission

The HR called me again yesterday. I talked with another Head of Department. That is something to do with Engine Transmission. I can't really write about the job scope as I'm not yet very clear of it myself but it definitely technical. I like! They need replacement for one of their staff is retiring soon.

What I can remember is he said something that the department is more towards engine assembly; is related with electronic bits; the production is high; etc etc..

He asked whether I have seen any car engine? I answered "No".. yeah what did u expect huhuhhh (other than on the internet or magazine  ) He sounds fun, nothing serious so I had a relax conversation, BTW he laughed more than me, cool.

Finally I asked "How many staff in the department?"

"Roughly 400. At the moment all men including 1 woman. Bukan laki, JANTAN sume. Ngeri tak?" End with his signature laugh.

ooookeyyyyy thats a liiitleeee scaryyy! dushhhhhhhh!

Anyway, I don't want to put any hope on this. who knows same thing might happen as last time. I will keep job hunting. Will hear from HR again this Monday.

Short notes:

My stuff reached me yesterday! yippieeeee!!!!

I tried some trousers. They are tight!!!! OMG!!!! I'm getting fat!!!!!!!

I weigh 45 now, goshhhhhhhh 5 kg gained in 2 months! WTF!!!!

A Rather Bad News, Or Is It Good News?

I called the HR guy this afternoon asking about the job I supposed to start this Monday. It turned out I don't fit both departments I went to last time (both are project management basis). Or in harsh way I was RE-JEC-TED!. I should really asked why. Strange enough. How could they be so enthusiastic and exciting promoting to me about each of their department so that convinced me to choose them and now... you are telling me this?

Yes Great! Even one of them told me right on my face how suit I am with their management team according to the details on my CVs. I'm not angry. I'm just a bit dissapointed to be treated that way. Maybe it's my ego. They may have their reason for it. You know what? It's like when the man in your dream come proposing to you on a romantic beach only to know he was just practicing his speech to propose to another woman (Yes, I was addicted to Sindarela series) Anyway, As I've secured a place there, whatever it is, they already hired me, the problem is to find a department for me.. ohh well... So my report duty date is postponed to another date I don't know when.

Buttttt after all that rambling, I went "YESSSSSSSS!!!!" right after the phone call hahaaa The reason?? I've been thinking about the departments (yes the project management thing) quite deeply. As I mentioned in my previous post, I will be lack of technical skill which means my 4 years of EEE degree will mostly go waste into the drain. Yup I agreed to the fact that people usually do works they never did during study which means we still have to learn about the work stuff all over again as we start the career. Eventhough I'm not yet have a clear idea about what I really want to do as my career goal, deep inside me I know I don't want to throw away my hardship to get my degree in Electrical & Electronic Engineering. I have to embrace that and I want to feel that I deserve to get a good career which I can relate to it.

Honestly, I took everything for granted and now I regret it. On the positive side, it wakes me up from the take-it-easy and procrastinating me.

Now I'm panic! Got to job hunting another job! Yes GOT TO!!!

All this makes me realise just how hard it is actually to get a job.

Driving Practices & How My Career Starts

phewwwww just got back from my 1st driving practicing, nope, I'm not in process of getting driving license, I already got the full one! huhuhhhh but haven't drive for.... mmmmm I would say 4 years! yup 4 years guys hahahhh.... Last time I drive was after A-Level, I was going to drop my sister at his friend's when I hit our neighbor fence Thank God-ly, I didn't hurt the fence but the car was injured, after that I couldn't remember myself on the wheel again. Last Saturday my dad forced me to test-drive with him using my sis's car which is auto (all cars at my house are auto anyway huhuhhh). It was ok, it was just a bit hard for me to control the steering. Well, we didn.t go far anyway, just around the housing area and filled up the tank.

This morning I started learning back formally. I like the instructor! He's a chinese. His way of teaching is so simple yet very clear and easy for me to understand. Yesterday the driving school boss called me asking if I want a lady instrustor or don't mind man instructor. I don't mind really and today while driving he kept saying sorry when he had to touch my hands to control the steering and gear. It shows how sensitive they are and I respect him for that, but please I really don't mind that. So yup I hate driving manual, he told me I can use my own automatic car after 2 or 3 times driving the school car just to make sure I'm confidence enough to handle the steering. So there we were, he didn't train me at driving school but on road instead. Definately I practiced a bit on empty housing area, played with the gear, what clutch for, U-turn etc etc.... then we went makan angin hehehhh... and yeah since forever I always found the hardest part of driving manuals is at the traffic light I killed the engine twice today bleghhhhh.... only that. This is when auto cars come handy to me. There, I'll practice again tomorrow morning if the sky is clear.

On the other story, I did medical checkup at my becoming workplace last Monday. I was exhausted and it made my head felt a bit heavier than usual. It may caused by the rain, well who knows rain at factory site may cause more harm to human being... anyway, I was there ALL day! Exhausted! I don't care about me but I was concerned about Pakcik MN, he had to wait for that long hours! We reached at around 930am. I went to HR. The person who supposed to take care of me wasn't there so the receptionist guy passed me to En. R to handle it. He gave me all the forms I need to fill in and then straight to the clinic to have my medical checkup done. After that we went to another clinic which was a bit far to do X-Ray. Came back to HR to talk about which department I should be fit in. As En. R didn't know that I was coming that day, he didn't prepared anything. To make it worse, the ED department which suit my strength well didn't has any vacancy at the moment. So he has to find other departments by checking with every single of them. One vacancy available for me was in PPC (Production Planning & Control). He wanted me to meet the boss first to discuss about it, to see if either me or them think that I suit with the work nature or not.

So, we meet at 2, before that we had lunch with my friend and Pakcik MN. I met with two different departments but confusingly look like the same for me. They both are more into Project Managment rather than involve in technical stuff. So the benefit is if I joined either one, I can assure that my management skill will be top-notch, However I will be lacking with technical skills What u think huh???

So everything is not confirmed yet, he will call me later as it was too late it was already the end of office hour and I didn't want Pakcik MN to wait any longer. So now I just wait and see and if everything is Ok, I can start work on 3rd November.. yippieee I am exciting but at the same time nervous if I can't meet their expectation huhhhhh....

Short notes:

My newly born niece won't be here until Saturday! Boringggg!!!!

I think I'm losing a very dear friend
