My Job

 Dad called me last night. Then asked about what job I am doing. I told him Software but he didn’t know the term. He gets most of his things done without for many many years until the era where mobile phone became known. Then I said it has something to do with computer or phone. He asked me why my mum’s phone always gets disconnected from the TV after sometime while watching with cast. I told him I don’t know about that. Even if I did the programming, I programmed it to connect but wouldn’t program it to disconnect.  😎 I have become somebody that I really hate. haha


His Passport also expiring soon and with the land border only opening up around beginning of Aug, quite troublesome now. 


I managed to set off at 6:30 am from home. Had breakfast and reached Kranji at 7 am. Then reached City Square around 8 am. Lucky the queue was not that long. Never queued for passport at both Sg and Msia Custom. I did walk a little bit more when the bus dropped us at Sg Custom. Walk is faster than the bus drop at the destination. just 200m I guess. I waited wondering why not moving, then the bus door was kept open and only realised until quite a few of them got off the bus. All bus lane was full even though no people.


Now waiting. Was here but missed out the queue. Went straight up to Top floor with some difficulties as some escalator was not working and the up escalator is on alternate side… Have to walk half a round on each floor to get to the other side. Then after I am on the 3rd, I asked the info guy and lucky I did, the queue is at the Ground floor which I walked past just now without realising.


Down I went, the queue and signs weren’t that clear and there is only one person guiding. Somebody jumped queue in front of me. sigh… I think I should be fine as long as I get a number.


Now it’s 10am. I am still on the ground floor… Number 40 now so there are 19 people ahead of me… guess that will be another 1 or 2 hrs.

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.

Funny Things

 Scam has definitely affect everyone daily like never before. When my cousin got my number and wants to connect, she put a photo on whatsapp’s profile photo and also sent me her picture to verify she wasn’t a scammer. The fact is that scammers did that too. In fact the more professional the photo was, the more likely it is a scam. When I applied a job, I will also worry it is a scam. Especially no email and I cannot find much on the internet. The only thing that makes the interview sounded right was the interview ways of speaking and a more lifelike profile picture. I chose to believe it and if it hadn’t post on mycareersfuture, I wouldn’t have believe the job was legal when email has problem. I thought email was always the sign of legitimate business or scam. In 2024, anyone can doubt now. I can receive a legitimate email or message that was scam and also non-legitimate as not scam… How inconvenient so I treated all as a scam. Better safe than sorry. Most people fell to the scam i...
