Some updates......

Here comes the second half of year 2011, and it's also my 7th month joining the Quality and Training team.

At the beginning, I was still thinking of my time at helpdesk. Always imagine I'm still taking calls, and sometimes I practice my call scripts too. Anyhow, after a few months here, I start getting used to working as a QA and I'm a 'part-time' trainer for Mandarin too... hehe...

If I want to differentiate the work as a QA and helpdesk, the most obvious part is, QA's work is quite routine. Every month repeat the same thing, when you finish one round for this month, the next round will be coming soon. But still it's challenging, especially now I have to deal with at least 20~30 different people every month. Not including the training and orientation some more.

Then do I like this job?
Eh... I can't say like or don't like. I think I still need more time to fit into my position.
The good thing is, I don't feel resistant to work.
I'm working in a great team, with great manager, great teammates... what else I'm expecting?
Maybe the next one I would expect is............... higher salary. hehehe

Quit smoking in correct way

I've just finished another month of the training. This time, only 4 attendees, but coincidentally, all of them are smokers.

Actually I'm quite sensitive to cigarettes. I can smell it if somebody smokes around me. Luckily my family members and most of my closed friends don't smoke. Everybody know how cigarette will harm your health, but because of certain reasons, they just feel like smoking can help them releasing their stress, or even some think that smoking can let them look smarter.

Nowadays, after the awareness of health, many people start taking some actions to quit smoking. However, if you are the one you have to find the right way, otherwise you will be ended up like those who involved in Chantix lawsuit, suffering from depression, suicidal thoughts.

Anyhow, as you understand that, smoking is not good for health. For whichever reason, just quit if you are still care about your loved ones.

Putrajaya Flower & Garden Festival 2011

I went to Putrajaya for the Floral 2011 last Sunday, this time we went at night. Last year my family also visited the Floral 2010, but since we went during daytime and also it was the first few days, the flowers were still nice and fresh, this time, especially for those used for decorations, are almost withered. Anyhow, I'm still glad that I had been joining the event.
