Wenjie’s ramblings as he goes through this thing called life.

So it is confirmed then. Two trips next month, the first one to Bangkok followed by HongKong shortly after. The trip to Bangkok will be stressful, as I will be setting up everything myself. And talking in a trade show, never done that before.
The trip to HongKong will be better, just be there to listen to a presentation and meet the big boss. Thinking of extending my trip for a few more days.
Exciting and stressful month ahead.
I mean seriously…. wtf?

Exactly a week after I sent my email to complain, I received a reply :
Thank you for your feedback.
We regret to learn of your experience and wish to explain that we place topmost priority in providing a safe, reliable and efficient service to our passengers. It is our operation procedure that the Train Officer will play the train doors closing announcement to alert passengers that doors are closing. He will then check against the CCTV monitor in his driving cab to ensure that passengers have fully alighted or boarded before pressing the door closing button.
Train doors are designed with an important safety feature which ensures that trains will not move off if an object or a person comes between the train doors. If any of the train doors are not fully closed, an indicator in the driver’s cab will light up, prompting the driver to re-open all the train doors.
Pleaes be assured that we will investigate the incident and take appropriate action against the Train Officer concerned.
Thank you for bringing the matter to our attention.
Right. Is it their policy not to inform what are the results of their investigation? At least I know it is not a standard template reply since there was a typo in the reply.
Now this is really extreme programming:
It’s also an adventure for the approximately 30 engineers and programmers at NASA who are tasked with writing and testing 1,000 to 1,500 lines of software code and then beaming it about 93,000,000 miles away — every day.

After coming back from my holiday, it was my colleagues turn to go on theirs. And this week, it was my boss’s turn. I had to take over much of his job for this week.
I find myself juggling between 2 projects, not to mentioned having a client presentation in between. After coming home from work, the first thing I do is to turn on my notebook to keep an eye on my office emails throughout the whole night.
I was complaining to anyone who care to listen, but surprisingly, I do not seem to really mind actually. Perhaps I know deep down inside that eventually I will have to shoulder all these responsibilities, and it is something that I have to aim towards.
Climbing up the ladder, one small step at a time.
Can you imagine how liberating it would be to live a life free of all the mind-numbing social niceties?
