活该

Today, I sent my laptop to upgrade the software. It is not working as intended so they say it is strange. I shouldn’t have send it back actually. Anyway, the laptop is as useful as useless. So, actually I could do things a whole lot slower. But, it is my time they are wasting even though I am getting paid to waste it. The damned laptop which someone gave to a developer. Then they withdraw internet access. It is not a joke. They are serious. Actually, I can just took the laptop. Everyday my only job is to check email, startup and shutdown the laptop. That’s all I can do with it. Easy right? Well, when I brought the laptop back, they say it is going to take a while. Since 10:30 am this morning. I bet they need 3 days based on the hell speed of the laptop. I can do even slower if all I am looking for were money. How fast you want your F1 driver drives? 


Anyway, I am using my own laptop. Based on the speed, I actually don’t have to work for a few days and even today actually. ACTUALLY MANY DAYS. Not sure how long it will take them to do everything. If I were to go back to that laptop, I cannot imagine but well, from that time onwards, I will not give in extra of my time to compensate that. You want fast, then faster tools. You want slow, I can always use back that laptop. I saw the pineapple tart lady in the pineapple tart shop using a macbook for her accounts. I want to open a shop and use my macbook for my accounts 👍. I saw somebody got a macbook and iphone for her new job. I had a 5-7 years old laptop?? not sure… when I do programming, they ask me to use a macbook. I did. Well, I haven’t touch my macbook for a while. I haven’t use commandline in a while. The damned c# and xaml were lacking many features and not having many stackoverflows. I really felt like the worst and unluckiest programmer in the whole wide world. WWW. Worst Work World. I am thinking, they never thought I would stay long I guess. Not like you work hard, then the laptop will behave. Out of my control.  

If an app took 1s to respond, the laptop may take more then 60s… Ok. Enough. Not enough. YOU SHIT LAPTOP. If they can give me the laptop, it signifies the  their expectation.

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.
