Software Engineer: Give you a cookie.


Me: I have no memory. Give me a cookie.


Kid: I have memory.

Parent: Give you a cookie.

Kid: *forgets everything.


Went downstairs to buy chicken rice and found out from the electronic bulletin that truck driver now has a salary of 4.7k. Another is a class 3 driver at 5k/month. So now what do parents tell their kids to study hard? If you don’t study hard, you will be a truck driver, dishwasher, wash toilet and whatever they could think of. Actually the pay now for all these are comparable to those who have studied hard. Not that bad wah. Now part time packing staff can earn 12/hr. Delivery driver 25/hr. 

Anyway not a bad thing but at least people are finally treating these people nicely and gives them what they deserve when it is all hardwork. 


I pitied the delivery guy because I think he has to send to my place which is furthest away from the lift and at the corner. Now, I think he should pity me more. Poor Engineer. Anyway, Engineers were never a high pay job long long time ago. Only recently, it has increased but well, not as much as the rest. 


Below 30, it is all about ambition, hard-headed, interest. Above 30, actually just want money. Interest maybe stands 30% or undetected.


You ask a business, do they build on money or passion? If a business is not making money, no matter what the passion was, it has to cease. There are business that start from passion though but they first have to have some gold before starting. 


If I only have myself probably, all I will look at is passion and interest. Driving truck can be fun but I worry my driving skills. I used to want to try driving my dad’s lorry but well, ahem. Well, never. Dream on. But wow. so kids, it is ok if you drive truck. They are perfectly legal and the things that u get were their hardwork.

Amount

 The amount I spent on learning before applying actually costed me more money until I do enough work. Still learning process is still needed even while working.  Doing things subconsciously can make the easiest problem complicated. Could be your old habits or subconscious typing or the auto correction? hm.. This one is more like my habit. It is a hard to catch error when we did like that. I was thinking what goes wrong and no matter what I did, it would not return my desired results. Turned the code that I wrote previously and just a line only which I overlooked while checking, was blocking the rest of the changes… Dangerous code is the counter code that you wrote to right a wrong or blocking the wrong from working. That’s normally a temporary solution but the solution turned out to be preventing me doing other works… sigh… 😮‍💨  Today’s a lucky day and I found it while doing another part… so it is good not to always focus on one problem. The other problem could be the c...

Tools and Work

 Things I bought for work. Another addition of $18.60 to the lost count of things that I bought for work. USB C to HDMI adapter has ARRIVED. Previously, I bought a hoco. and it is working fine still but too bad Shopee and Lazada don’t have them. I bought UGREEN then. I am attracted to name with colours on it. Hehe. Need one at the office so that I have less thing to carry back and fro of home. I bought another ergonomic mouse. My hand could go numb from using the mouse. Actually I have hand numb issue since young. Writing makes my hand numb. Not sure if that is normal but I do practice. I am not entirely sure if that is right hand only. When I used my left, I can write for a long long time even though the hand writing looks bad.  Bought soldering iron and tools set. Bought HDMI to mini port display x 3. One not working anymore and that’s why I bought another 2 (UGREEN $7.48 and IVANKY) because the working laptop needed it to display on another monitor. Bought a portable monito...

hmmmm

Keyboard warrior's keyboard checked. Another Jean checked. It is to make up for the pants that I spoiled two days ago. Just when I arrived at the office, I sat on a chair whereby the surface is grid-like and the  buttoned-up fake pocket button on the right side got plucked off leaving a hole a bit on the upper side of the bum. There is a flap that was together with the button. It just covers the hole a bit. I am not sure if the slit that the button goes through was big enough to see through. I tried to ensure my shirt was over the hole though at least to cover while I was not seated. It wasn't a good time. I was wondering should I just walk off to buy another pants but decided not to because we were busy. That went on for the rest of the day. A day to remember. The pants lasted 10 years. I bought it during my first job at 2011. Anyway, it was a bit tight around the waist so shouldn't have worn it at all. Although I am a bit heavier, my waist is a bit off only. I wonder if m...
