3 Days into Work Life

Sometimes, things don't always go the way you expect them to go. Nor do stuff turn out the way you planned it would.

I majored in Computer Systems and Networking in a 3 year Bachelor's degree course. And here's a list of my work tasks I've done for my job so far:

Day 1:

  • Cutting cello-tape
  • Carrying boxes
  • Unscrew shelves
  • Disposing of cables and equipments


Day 2:

  • Learn to use a paper shredder
  • Seal boxes
  • Play with bubble wrap
  • "Book-keeping"


Not things I'd so much as fantasized I'd be doing as so-called 'Network Engineer' =.="


There was though, of course, a good reason behind all this.

Apparently I'd came in at the wrong timing and the whole office is busy packing and clearing in preparation to move to a new office. So instead of doing what my said job position was supposed to be doing, all I can do right now is help out packing and exploring at the same time =)


Although today, I had the chance to do something I remember swearing upon my own grave, that I'd never ever want to dare touch again.

 Configuring Switches~!!
(Sorry for crappy image quality, camera phone)

For non 'techies'.... Switches in networks are like... .... well... it's something like cheese on a pizza.... whatever could that mean...

Which actually reminds me of the good old days back in the labs...

But these aren't switches btw....

Never thought I'd be seeing these things again so soon after studies.... sigh~


Well... in the meatime... Happy Belated Chap Goh Mei to everyone out there~ (I'm always late for greetings it seems)
