Survived 1 Week...

My coy: Siemens VDO

So much things happened during the last week... Last weekend super unlucky, damaged dd's sunshine while trying to squeeze through a pillar... so sad there goes one of my new year aspiration... No excuse all my fault for trying to be clever.. anyway it has "recovered" but the "hospitalisation n treatment fee" is not cheap ... anyway I bore all of it a guy gotta b responsible mah...(so now super poor haiz) buy 4D (3 numbers) also never win any money..super unlucky right?

Anyway started work at Siemens VDO on monday...went through the orientation blah blah blah where each dept head(or delegate) describes his/her dept in some details..Lectures for morning to evening (10am-530pm) this went on for 3 days...monday to wednesday..also went around meeting some of the staffs there also...mainly managers lah... haha Staff there numbered about 270

then 2 days thursday to friday attended the Compatibility Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) course (for those who dunno wat this is, this is a standard process model lah, suppose to mak industry process more standardized and achieve more efficiency )..lagi worse the course so dry, 2 whole days just study on that one... Wah!!! so sleepy...Anyway in the end still dun quite get wat the instructor is talking about haha

Anyway I am going to be an RnD Software engineer haha... I can say that this is quite close to my ideal job liao cos I like low level programming but if can gimme abit more of electronics then it would be best... haha
Found out that as RnD engineer I can't be slack already..heard that there's gg to be tight schedules for projects which means lotsa OTs... so in fact $2700 isn't alot.. And alot of frightening news from seniors like slow advancement, loads, little increment and bonus of work blah blah blah...
I believe there really is a compromise between a job u like and the benefits lor.. like if I go semicon industry I think I can get more pay but that won't be a job I like..I like RnD and RnD sector means u gonna work super hard else the "RnD" for waT? Relax aNd u Die haha...
My new boss err... not much interaction wif him yet..but my impression of him is that he is a stern and no-nonsense man... dunno whether I am gg to have a hard time under him or not...
I dunno whether I am his 1st choice candidate or not cos he only selected 2 mabbe he dun get enuff people that's why he got no choice then select me? haha dunno lah anyway get in liao then dun care lor...just do my best and see how...
