12th week of IA

yup..12 weeks of IA ended..time to hand in IA report 2. luckily i've been writing consistently every week..so its almost done...

haven't really mentioned about my work in ExxonMobil..i'll take this opportunity to write some of my thoughts since i'm in the mood..

first few weeks was pretty messy and troublesome and lousy for me...

apparently my supervisor didn't really bother about the students attached to him..didn't even see his face for more than a few mins each day. den knnbccb....he posted me to jurong island!! fucking far lor..still have to go thru checkpt..like go msia custom lidat...go down bus..scan the pass(like u msian can use some kind of pass to go thru lida) den have to scan the bag using the machine..and randomly kena spot chk by the police(i neva tio..usually banglas tio only..i wonder why)..anyway my pt is..its damn fucking troublesome and y i so suay..kena posted there!!

luckily over there got yi keong..my classmate..my ktv kaki...haha...

but at first i wasnt with him..was in another building another department..
at first..looks gd feels ok...but kaoz..left alone again...neva rally bother abt mi..i'm like his PA lidat..make tea n coffee...help him do microsoft word and powerpoint and excel...wtf..somemore its simple things lor...to make myself feel better i drank the milo n ribena in the pantry like nobody's business...hahah..my milo powder put as much as the water..like dinosaur lidat..damn nice~

den i happen to find out that i can find a way to get a transfer to my fren's department..apparently pple do know tt my sup n the department usually dun care abt IA students one..just take them in for i oso dun fucking know wat....so i talk to this person tt person and this person and tt person..until i finally got my way and got transferred...

this department was where all the chem engineers were so things were abit more familiar...knew the EM engineers..pretty niec pple i must say..not the most happening kind though...and the fellow IA pple were quite fun oso except one lah..who pretty much an introvert and quiet i guess...loves the computer more than mi..alothough we in the same room but neva talk more than a few sentence each day...

it took a while before work started coming in..real work..where u solve some of the refinery's problem..u dun actually solve it..usually its just part of the problem which the engineers feel tt students can do and let them do so they can conc on the most impt stuffs...

work was ok till now..some took quite a bit of thinking..other were pretty straightforward...these large companies internal network is damn chim lah i tell u..they have their own programs and email programs and a lot of database..damn impressive..i read here and there until i blur man...so many data i dun even know wat is there man...took mi a few wks to know how to find info to do my work..but i can say i dun even know 50% of the available information.

hmm...everything seems going fine for now...i'm getting my pay and i'm doing some read work..fair enough..in an oil company..paying someone 1000+ is like the lowest end of the pay scale man...we're actually cheap labour..knn...sounds lousy

this IA actually make mi think whether i should go into refinery work next time..after 12 wks..i feeling is i dun mind going back to work there..but its definitely not very attractive work...the engineers are like damn busy and i MEAN DAMN BUSY always n no life..well..i shall look out for more career options meanwhile..i did submit my application to EM though...gg to attend mindef recruitment talk next fri too...see what they say..not bad man..its in marina mandarin ballroom.

well..just hope next week everything goes well for mi..if u know what i mean..
