Well it's a competition every where you go. So I want to secure myself with a job first then slowly discover what the world has to offer.
Just started working in a small engineering firm. I am lonely and stressed because of this job, but I cannot deny that I learnt quite a lot in these few months.
I helped my boss set up the Penang branch company, started designing and creating website. Can not get any crazier. I know nothing about designing, what more creating a website! I was pushed to the edge because I am not familiar with designing. I finally gave in and called up a couple of friends to help me with it.
I am never more grateful when I started class with them. They are an eye opener! They took time out of their busy schedule to help teach me. They made my job so much easier! I struggled for one month to create a very simple design and do the linking!!
I feel upset because my boss doesn't seem to understand when I say I am not from a designing and IT background and I have to learn everything from scratch! I know that I am rather slow but I have to go through videos after videos and reading after reading!! And to know all the codes to create the website is even worse! When I told my boss that I couldn't finish my work in time, he doesn't seem happy.
He ask the IT guy to assist me, how is this helping when he ask me to create everything again using Photoshop, that I have to learn from scratch again!
I was challenged to the edge and finally made that phone call to ask some friends to help me. And, they really helped me lots! Encouragement from friends and love is the only thing that kept me going on this long.
When I finally send in my designs and work, I am never more proud of myself. Though they ask for a whole lot of changes, I just did. I feel more relieve that I manage to perform in my work.
After everything is done, I reflected on myself and found out that I complain too much and work too little. I am going to learn perseverance and patience to help make me a better and stronger person.
Thank you for all the love and support =)
