working at C … 1

August 26, 2008

i started my work last Monday (18-08-2008) … this is my first ever job. i really hope i can learn lots of things here. anyway i have been with C for four years as a student. So, actually i dont really have something like ‘culture shock’ or watever u wanna call it.

first day at work was pretty okay. didnt do much, didnt have comp account, didnt have a comp, didnt have an email account, and didnt have many more …. talked to new ppl, like ben, xl, roy, and other guys that i have known for some time. yeah, i am quite popular :D … i mean, i know many ppl there :P , those ppl that i know from NUS, NTU, or C … yeah, quite a lot of them. until a colleague commented that first day at work, i have known more ppl than him …. jealous huh :p hahaha jk jk 

second day, got my comp account, then tried to get my email account but to no avail … coz they got my name wrong in the first place … so they had to change it again, and needed to wait for approval … everything took time … sianzzz

third day, still so so … read stuff that i have read long time ago .. but yeah, i have forgotten almost everything i would say … so read read read again. then the nice ben taught me lots of things. yeah boss asked him to teach me before he left. coz that week was his last week. i am so sorry ben, i am so being a spoiler … last week of working, still need to face me, who asked so many questions … i hope i didnt annoy u :p

fourth day at work, still the same, get almost all the accounts done after calling IT helpdesk for many times …. i dont know why we need to have so many accounts … and we have to come out with so many passwords, and the passwords are so complicated ones … i forgot a few times, then wat to do? simple, just call IT helpdesk … but seriously, we have so many accounts … i shant elaborate more, pissed me off … for lunch we went to swensen at causeway point, its a farewell lunch for ben, organized by hsiang fang … hahaha

fifth day of work, boss treated us for lunch. its a farewell lunch for ben and hsiang fang, the welcome lunch for xiaolong, sripad (just came back from I), and me, and mom-to-be deb … our boss is just damn smart, combine everything into one … hahah save money huh …

then after work, we went to clark q, had farewell dinner for ben again … drank beer and chivas … BI got drunk …. BI why u so …. haha shall not say it out loud … ellen was dazed for awhile also … luckily i wasnt drunk, a little worried at first, coz that was the first time i drank hard liquor …

to be continued ….

anyway, today unofficially is my last day of schooling. just imagine, how long have i been in school? kindergarten 2 years, primary school 6 years, junior high 3 years, senior high 3 years, bachelor 4 years, and for my grad school 4 years … and add them up together … it;s a whopping 22 yearsss … freaking unbelievable. only four years of my life were spent not at school ( i exaggerate it :p) …

anyhow, not sure whether i am happy, or sad, but surely a little nervous here, coz i will start my work on monday … dont know why i wanna start so early. should have taken a break. but nvm … i decided, and now i have to live with it. exciting? yeah a little. lost? maybe, lets see. but surely, it is a next stage of my life. work, earn moniesss … :)

okie, i shall update again on monday. tmr i have a final presentation at school, not my oral defense yet, just present to our research group. hope everything will be going fine. :) and not looking forward to the presentation actually.

anyway, going off now … adios
