Challenge

 Doing payment thing without test, from scratch, limited information and across borders. Within 4 days. Good thing this time, at least I have a requirement. They want approval end of this week or consider this Friday. Received the news 3pm today. Counting down. First, have enough rest before rushing. I did read up a bit for like 3 days partly but on separate things. To implement was another because it involved the whole structure. More like and additional branches but need to merge back at the end. 

Great day for being here 1 year. Sarcastically haha. Like when I first started, never even seen the Equipment. Did the Receipt Printer and try to standardize as much as possible. Code is Raw. It was like the arduino type of printer. Then the Camera without a Camera on my laptop. Then the Payment Terminal (not much study but just implement from others) but at least the hardware was there. Then the wristband printer. Spent some times on the the user manual to troubleshoot. Weird but I have no time for that. Got DBS warning to block my card but they called me instead. I just used MOP 0.01 cents. Surprisingly, I have to use my own card to test for work. My own laptop to do things. So, sarcastically was even. Now new type of payment. No test card also. Not even my own card can be used. I should go far beyond sarcastic. Adventurous man!

Still we are finalizing tonnes of things.....

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.
