Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

 If somebody offered a 2 to 3 times salary higher than your current job and also changing temporary to permanent staff, will you apply for it. Anyway, there is no certainty that you will get it cos there is always other applicants who people might more probably choose. Then like all others after interviewing two to three rounds… then you didn’t get it. Although I did learn from it, it doesn’t make sense to me. I could learn much more if I don’t keep learning interview questions… I could make use of the time to make and remake and perfecting a website, a tool, an app or whatever. 

The truth is, the salary is pretty high compared to what I have now. They are using golang, a language that I have learnt a year ago… doing new technology (this is interesting). BUT More worried about job scope. It could be a job that has never ending meetings or endless emails? The perks of my current job is that I don’t have so many meetings, mainly doing coding and testing. The saddest part is unknown hardware and my laptop… I bought mine. Anyway, if I need to start helping my nephew for his school fee, I need a higher pay and stable job… So, I cannot decide now… sigh… one part is I liked the job apart from all the flaring up time. Another part of me is getting distracted by the high pay and also the technology use. They are willing to train those that I haven’t really get used to but learn a bit before. Like Docker. Not sure if they spelled correctly as Decker… hmmmm. I am in a dilemma. I just don’t like to waste time on fruitless attempt. Especially a test or when something can be known but took a long time to find answer. 


Actually looking back, if I did continued with that course probably I will be there already… looking at the people who were in the same course as me… I won’t be stuck with a 15 year old app although quite astounding but it does tell me one thing. As long as the app works, it is fine. Another thing about current job mainly is because, most things, we can talk things through even my manager. I don’t think it is in any of the industries nowadays. Should I sacrifice this? 


What shall I do? If it was me a year ago, I would have gone for it without any questions… More than that, I think it is my own fear of the uncertainty of these good deals. One higher than the other. New tech scored the biggest point.

Cuts

 I finished doing my wallet without cutting myself. I got a poke from the needle though but it was alright. Only that one time. The rest I found a way to prevent that. The cutting mat has been very useful and now it’s filled with holes. Today I got my first cut of the year. Fengshui’s problem. I was taking something from the dark corner near the kitchen sink at work. Was opening the carton for umbrella. Someone asked me to take. When I was cashier, I normally took it myself instead of calling someone unless really necessary. I have cut away the tape but the tape side sick to the wall so I pulled it and I couldn’t remember but just felt sharp pain on my left palm. My left hand gave way after the cover flipped open and the knife on the right hand slashed my palm. Sigh, I should have close it before pulling the cover. It failed to open the first time so I slide it out to cut a second time but worry it didn’t open and kept it that way. Should have trust my instinct.  I also think ...

Bank

 A bank asked me to apply for their job. I was a bit skeptical whether it was scam. After a few conversations, it seemed legit. They needed my updated resume. I didn’t have. Go back to my old canva, then dragged out the old one. I realised I have a Word document ones after I sent the pdf ones. I should have just used the Word document because it was the latest. Anyway, I don’t have finance background so I might not get it. Based on their requirements, I think there are lots of things I have not yet explored. However, if I can finish my task earlier, maybe I can go for a test or two to see what are the skills that I lacked of. I felt a bit off because I just kept on doing uwp… I also needed to back up against my current job because I felt insecure about it, based on the recent months I was there. I am not sure if they want me there just to solve few issues then once solved then don’t need me anymore. Because every moment I was there, I felt a bit like it. They are also spending quit...

Peculiar

 Not sure how I should feel. Good or bad. Mum used to be very good with tech. Well, yesterday, have spent two hours over the phone just to help her log in to my account. In the end, she only managed to download and update her Netflix app on her iPad. iPad actually a bit different from Android so she has lots of difficulty linking App Store is equivalent to Google Play… When I said search, she literally search by her eyes… I cannot help but laugh at myself. Programmer and code did the same. I am not around so I can only do these for her. Sigh… Should have gave her a tutorial during CNY…  My screen is back… The touch screen I bought previously so that it is easier for me to do work. The pc that I bought previously is a good investment in the end. Thank God or the manufacturer that both working fine so far.
