Stopped myself working after dinner today, already did 7 hours and 21 minutes overtime this weekend.

The unhealthy "usual" would be to work before lunch and after dinner, with the time between lunch and dinner my weekend relax, personal time. And if it's super crunch time, then it would be working the whole day, usually longer hours than normal work weekday.

I am darn tired of this, working overtime during the weekend, the continuous work/life imbalance.

Hopefully this is the last weekend I have to work overtime before the next such need arises, and may that next such need be a long time away...

Regardless, I am taking the week off the next coming week. Enough is enough.

The invincible


Most teenagers think they will live forever, that they are indestructible.

Coupled with their young hot blood, inexperienced and the ignorant recklessness, they do many things that the more matured and experienced can only shake our heads at.

Knew that if there was anyone in the family that would be infected by Covid-19, it would be one of the kids. What with their high exposure attending school with the many other teenagers with the same kind of attitude, and their many social outings.

So I am not surprised when the elder son is tested positive today. Given how nobody seems to care anymore, this is bound to happen. Just a matter of when.

I am glad that so far he is not experiencing any other symptoms except the fever yesterday. Here's hoping that he will make a full and swift recovery and no other family member will be infected.

The coronavirus is still the one laughing, still the one living on, still the invincible.

突想


突然间惊觉,我最新的经理,将会是我工作生涯里第一位拥有我手提电话号码的经理。

果然世事难料啊…

这很重要,至少对我来说,所以需要记录下来。

再也不能说我的经理没有一位是有我的手机号码的了…

坚持了十五年,终于破功。

周末两天加时工作了十三小时三十二分钟。

今天晚上看到三个同时在运行的模型有两个已经开始计算时,心中那重石轻了不少。

希望第三个还没到计算那一步骤的模型也会顺利啦。更重要的是希望跑了一整晚后明天三个模型都会没有问题的完成计算啦…

剩下的今晚,到入睡前,终于有一些时间给自己。唉,可悲。

请还我那十三小时三十二分钟。请还我我应有的周末。

无奈


工作,加时再加时。根本就没有周末。

股价,下跌再下跌。根本和我加时工作无关但还是符合了我瞎说的那一套:我怨气越重股价越下滑。

我现在因不断加时工作累积的怨气真的是勾叉零蛋三角形的重!

另一方面,我可以累积的年假又要到上限了。

不拿假那些超过上限的就会自动作废,我觉得很可惜、浪费。年假可是每个月慢慢累积起来的嘞。

但拿了假也是在加时工作,更加不爽,心理更不平衡,怨气更重!

唉,就是这么无奈…

十六年


嘿,小天使
每年这天都会想起你
你在天国可好?

爸爸好累
工作很忙,忙到周末和假期都加班
家里也不安宁,总是不能清静

你的大弟弟很叫人头痛
不爱学习,整天只是想着玩
总是搞到家里乌烟瘴气,负能量满满

爸爸最近总在质疑人生
不知道自己这么忙、这么累是为了什么?
中年危机?还是就是觉得人生没有意义?

可以的话,好好看顾你的弟弟们
尤其是那个叫人操心的大弟弟
还有要保佑妈妈

没能与你在这世相见
也许我过世时可以和你相会吧?
乖乖了,我的小天使

Long weekend


First weekend of June is a three days long weekend thanks to Agong's birthday.

Yippie! =D

Already know will be working through the three days long weekend because of the workload and deadline.

Boo! =(

Current plan is to work only half day every day, and give myself the other half off.

Actual work duration will depend on the progress, I need to get the thermal model of the latest project completed and start the simulation by the end of these three days.

Or die trying.
