Internet Communication

With the Taiwan Earthquake, 6 undersea fibre optic cables were damage causing Asia Internet Access to other region crippled.

For us, IT workers, this really slow us down, loading a page may take minutes.

Worse of all, some analyst expects the repair work may take 2-3 weeks. That is very bad.

Sometime, I think of the world with no Internet, will it be better or worse? haha. It will be take more effort to research for info and lesser sharing to be refered. But, on the other hand, the working life may not be that stressful, like 15 years ago. When computer (during the XT era) are standalone machines. At most connect to Bulletin Board using 56Kbps modem. Well, that is a dream. Everything will evolve and must evolve, changed must be embrace or risk falling behind. That is our life.

Clearing Leave

Great, things seems better now.

Project is consider stable compare to before.
Support was trained to help.
Workplan and role has been clarified (not totally and never will be clear, but at least clearer)

And I am going to clear leaves starting tomorrow and only return to office next Monday.
Needed the break to rest greatly.

I am not going for any tours, but will be relaxing at home, read a few books, watch a few videos, play some PC games, I guess, just doing things I enjoyed.

Tired....

Another long period of zero posting.

If you care, I am still alive.

The last 2 weeks has been nightmare. (really having nightmares most night)
Only slept 2 hours yesterday night, solving server error throughout the night.
And now I am still preparing Powerpoint for tomorrow's presentation.

I am not suppose to do administrator and support works, and yet I am doing it.
Why? because I front the management and users and became the large stakeholder.
And so our dear vendor takes advantage to make full use of me.

To be fair, the new helpdesk support team onsite have good attitude, especially the VIP support.
But avoiding responsibility to officially take ownership of the administrator work, the engineer team is just not reasonable. Busy? I am even more busy! I know why, of course! Because we do not issue a VO to your company for this project. I do not blame you, business means money but by fair to me too. Give and take, I have hold up your responsibility for a month already. I am even being question by my boss that why I am not doing my strategy but running around doing hands-on works. Sigh....

I hope everything will be fine soon. It will, I am sure.
:-)

Bless me for a night of peaceful sleep, ok? Thank you!
