ngantor

since the end of february i have been working from home, because the covid-19 plague hit the world including in Jakarta. Initially, the laptop is placed on the table as usual. but because i must always stand-by because it must be responsive every time i got contacted from colleague, therefore it is more sitting in front of the computer than the as usually i do in the office or at the client's office. in the end it causing sore. unfortunately, I have  visual impairment so it is rather difficult to sit normally, because the screen is less readable. later i add a monitor which it's resolution is rather low, so the fonts aren't too small. but sore still happened. and then the trend of laptop's holder hit internet. well, in thi economy, i don't think i will follow the trend. finally a bright idea come across my mind, I use a binder. to hold the laptop. more or less it has the same functionality, isnt' it? add binder Well, at least it is somehow gives a bit ergonomic ...

it is come to my mind from time to time, that normally i don't go to a proper interview to get my previous or my current job. went back to my previous 4 jobs, most of them is not really having a proper interview on me. but one which i most remember is when i got a call to attend to an interview at 4 PM, while i don't really know the exact location of the venue, and it's 1 PM which i'm not sure whether i can get early leave. i manage to come on time, well a bit late, but it's 4 PM and i've already in the building, but somehow reluctant to enter the office due to no information shows that it is the office i want to go to. after met with the security guard, who ask me to wait, and i met this guy, it's a foreigner. a friend who informed me about this job is not telling me that i had to go for interview with a foreigner. what i'm worried about is my english which was very rusty. been years that i'm not using it. so, my future boss then asking ...

things are all in crisis. it happened after covid-19 pandemic break. it damage everything too other than human life. the covid-19 pandemic causing people must stay at home, thus the economy slowing. some people managed the opportunity to work from home, but alas some company cannot afford it. and it end up with layoff. so is this office. luckily the management not going to fire anyone in the next 5 or 6 months, but they must cut the salary off to 60% let see how long this things will be going on. hopefully things can come back as normal soon.

when i decide to bring a mug from home, i choose the less attractive one, so nobody would bother to use it. and recently i found that my mug is regularly used by one of the colleague. maybe it is better to write my name on the mug

so there's this project which is kebakaran and need some fire extinguisher. one of them is coming via account manager, is to invite the client project manager to have lunch. the thing is the project manager is too quiet, and the account manager seem lost of things to be basa-basi-in. in the end it all feel awkward, i try to jump in to some random topics, while since nobody tek-tok-an with me, then it all goes nowhere.

so, there's a messed up on our report to client, hence they angry. while we still cannot provide the report that they want, they summoned us to come to their office. one of the guy stressed so much, so causing gastric pain, the other one is having feverish from yesterday which seem still not fully recovered, and one guy suddenly having an eye problem since morning. and client won't listen to any excuse "because we are all sick, so please spare us"
