It’s the end of the year, again... I have been quite busy with this job earlier but it’s coming to a slowdown. May be it’s because of the global economy meltdown (later may be vaporized). Nothing much to do in the office nowadays i.e. attending meetings, modifying drawing, replying/ report to boss, processing contractors’ claims, searching for some information, calling him or her, etc. I assumed this field supposed to be kind of technical but it’s not even close to it, may be it’s because of the company size or the boss is such of a technical wizard that seems to be generally perceived that he needs not to be so technical. So? What to do, just follow orders...
I was thinking of upgrading current knowledge in this field when there are some spaces between works. Sometimes, I don’t even have an idea of where to start i.e. to study a sub- field (Fire Fighting) that has a limitation (at least the field is not so wide) on the job scope or another one (Air Conditioning) that currently I have only touched the tip of an iceberg. Both also under my job scope, which makes me have headache. Current strategy of mine is to focus on the most used sub- field (i.e. just absorb WHATEVER). Few days back, boss threw a set of drawing and I was told to have a look in Air Conditioning Electricity Consumption. He told me when the times are bad next year; he will need me to train more on this (Boss really want to train me? I also not that sure... Why he would and why he wouldn’t?) Talking about training, I really don’t know the last card in the hand of my boss (I say this because he only threw drawing to me, that’s called training? I wondered, still wondering...)
Next year (I think) the office will not be so busy, because large projects have been subjected to temporary stagnation, all have been tagged KIV. Lately also been thinking of my monthly income, hope the boss will spare us from the cruel reality of recession and salary reduction, may be a VSS? If the working days are to be reduced to 4 days/week, I think it would be ok as long as the salary cut is acceptable. Just 8 months into working, already need a break to refresh myself, rearrange, put all things in order, and come out a better more readied person.
This, that, this, that... Until when? Anyway, who cares? No use of even to care, life goes on everyday, anyway have to...
