I have been kinda slacking at work lately (as u know that i was even online and chattin during work lately).
It was becuase I was waiting for the new project which supposed to be started from Sept, but had a few problem with the progress so it was postphoned a month.
during that month period, I basically had nothin to do, though i still had so much to “self-study” such as studyin for the qualifyin exam for bookkeeping (which requires for the basic programmin knowledge for accounting area), studyin for IT basic knowledge as well as ABAP (programmin language for SAP R/3).
I was kinda depressed with the stuff ive done since i ve started working…even though its not my fault nor my comapnies, its juz the timing problem as it happens quite often, What ive done so far is juz to learn basic stuff and havent really “work” and still get paid….ppl might think its good, but i feel very bad. and somemore, all my collegues who joined comapny at the same time have been workin for at least a few month already….i am the last one to join the project….
Well, while I was at the company office, Ive learnt many useful things through the managers and other sales ppl and they ve treated me really good.
and last friday, my manager brought me the news that his friend from other company asked him if got any ppl who is suitable and willing to do consultation. and my manager recommended me for that spot!!!
I had meetin with the manager and his friend on friday night (it was unofficial interview) and he said he is gonna teach me to be a consultant!
usually to be a consultant in my company (and normally for programmers), you have to go through several steps…firstly as programmer for a few years, then become System Engineer, then after that, they have to get the recommendation and take the consultant exam and only if they pass, then can be consultant. overalll it will at least take 6 or 7 years, or even more.
now i can straight away learn to be a consultant (even though its on different area), but still it was my dream to be consultant in my career in first place, so its fantastic and awesome!
Hopefully i learn fast, I do well, and be a good consultant. Its gonna be tough i know, but i will try my best =)
