Teambuilding

Had my second teambuilding with the new department today.

Back to a hotel after ten years, for their teambuilding and lunch package.

Ten years ago it was the final of a quarter long departmental Olympic games, we even had a t-shirt printed for that event, designed by yours truly. =)

Some games we played today felt familiar, so I went and checked my photo album, and noticed that pretty much everything is the same except they swapped out passing water balloon for passing the hoop with hands linked this time round.

Oh, and they made the leg piece for the five men linked race now, it used to be strip of clothes tying our legs up, haha.

Similar games, different feel.

Besides old age (yes, I admit!), I think it's due to different crowd, or more precisely, different level of familiarity with them compared to the previous experience. After all, ten years ago the teams had been through several competitive games and sports together throughout the quarter, so the teams were already well-bonded.

And I am still relatively new to this department and not doing anything to get to know the people.

Antisocial for the win! =P

Anyway, a fun event nevertheless.

It's me who has changed without that crazy group of colleague friends.

Slacker does it this way

Every year, I told myself to do my tax form early.

And almost every year, I ended up only submitting pretty close to due date. slacker point +1

I have a habit of making a soft copy after my submission, to avoid any unnecessary dispute.

Out of curiosity I checked my submission dates for the past ten years and they are:

10th (1), 18th (2), 19th (1), 22nd (1), 26th (1), 28th (3), 30th (1).

All in April of course, looks like 28th is my most frequent date and I even dragged till the very last day once, hehe. =P

Slacker extraordinaire!

Backlogs #24: Cuteness overload

These screenshots are dated between 19th and 23rd of December 2016, a series of conversations that touched on the profile picture I use at work.

You see, I was at another site supporting the factory but the photo on my badge had faded too much I was asked to get a new badge with a clear photo. Security needs an identifiable clear image, that sort of thing.

So I went and made a new badge, where I retook a recent photo, and used that photo as the profile picture in my company e-mail and instant messaging services.

 

To be honest I was surprised by the amount of attention it triggered, and no, I am not cute!

心的频道：看靓女

养眼好看的女人很多。

会打扮、化妆来变得养眼好看的女人也很多。

现在连乔装变脸的女人也可怕的多…

这世界真凶险恐怖。

我是正常性取向的男人，所以我当然喜欢看漂亮美丽的女人。

有益健康的，真的。 =P

但我始终都还是比较喜欢素颜的、自然的美。

不为什么，就是因为喜欢「真」，不喜欢「假」。

不过就只是看看而已，没差啦，化妆的“美女”可能就看很短的一眼，素颜的美女就看长一点的一眼咯，呵呵！ =P

还是友善的、有礼貌的脸孔比较吸引我啦。

说真的，真的很讨厌那些自以为是、自认清高的女人。

大家都是人，自以为美就高人一等吗？

我呸！

就是偏偏不看这种女人，睬你都傻。

一个真诚友善的微笑远比美丽高傲的臭脸更吸引人。

人格、内涵、修养，那些内在的美，才是我重视的。

外在的美是不会长久的，我们都会老。

与其努力的保持美丽的容颜，倒不如努力让自己老得优雅有品、有气质。

更更重要的，老得健康。

我知道，我知道，有太多肤浅的人了。

现实是蛮可悲的。

贱

我跟自己说，这个周末就好好的休息，养神充电来迎接下周的冲刺。

睡到太阳晒屁股的自然醒、悠悠闲闲的看看书、看一看电影、玩一玩电脑游戏什么的。

结果命贱的我却时不时打开笔记本电脑来工作。

勾叉零蛋三角形！

我那 13GB 的热流模型，交给软件应用程序去反复运作计算，解算相关的公式来模拟效果，是需要一整夜的时间的。

准备模型到可以开始解算的步骤，需要花一些功夫和时间。

到可以开始解算那步骤前有好几个步骤是很费时的，因为软件需要计算蛮多东西，通常是超过十分钟，甚至可以靠近一小时那么久。

应该是在休息养神，结果是疲累却还在费神的我，唯有保握这些间中的空当时间像死尸那样瘫倒在床上休息。

真的不知道为什么要这样对自己？

命贱到…

唉。

Gamers, get it while it's free

Ubisoft, the developer of the game Assassin's Creed, has generously decided to donate 500,000 Euro to help with the restoration and reconstruction of the Notre-Dame cathedral.

In case you are not aware of the news on Monday because you were more interested in some celebrity affair, Notre-Dame had a fire broke out and suffered structural damage.

Ubisoft's action is to be applauded, and on top of that, they are giving away the game Assassin's Creed Unity free to PC gamers for a limited time.

Why Assassin's Creed Unity?

Well, apparently it has a detailed Notre-Dame created in the game that players can explore and experience virtually this historical piece of architecture.

Anyway, free is free, so go grab it before the offer ends on 25th of April.

You can always decide later whether you want to play or not.

什么迹象？

换了部门至今还没满四个月，感觉上换了很多个老板。

面试时和一开始加入部门时是同一位老板，然后马上就换了一位。

然后很错愕的被告知是美国的那一位决定我的表现的…

嗬？

其实我到现在都不是很清楚状况，就是做好我的工作就是了。

但是有那仿佛自己不是和大伙同一组的感觉咯。

然后最新的消息是大约一个月后又要换老板了…

究竟是怎样？

请我进部门却没有老板要我是吗？

是否就是美国那位请了后随意丢给本地的一位经理来管理，但本地的却不知道该怎么处理所以推来推去？

唉… 搞不懂这是什么迹象。

我就是做好我的本分就是了啦，反正也不是我能控制的事。

同样一句：不能接受就改变，不能改变就离开。

希望不会需要离开啦，重新开始好累人的。
