I'm not a regular blogger just occasionally wanna share some thoughts and ideas to the rest of the world. Hope you like what you see and written.....:))
I was having trouble with my computer, so I called Richard,
the 11 year old next door whose bedroom looks like Mission
Control, and asked him to come over.
Richard clicked a couple of buttons and solved the problem.
As he was walking away, I called after him, 'So, what was
wrong?
He replied, 'It was an ID ten T error.'
I didn't want to appear stupid, but nonetheless inquired,
'An, ID ten T error? What's that? In case I need to fix it
again.'
Richard grinned. 'Haven't you ever heard of an ID ten T
error before?''
No,' I replied.
'Write it down,' he said, 'and I think you'll figure it out.'
So I wrote it down: I D 1 0 T
interviews, and testing were done there were 3 finalists. Two men and a
woman. For the final test, the FBI agents took one of the men to a large
metal door and handed him a gun.
'We must know that you will follow your instructions no matter what the
circumstances. Inside the room you will find your wife sitting in a chair.
Kill Her!
The man said, 'You can't be serious, I could never shoot my wife..' The
agent said, 'Then you're not the right man for this job. Take your wife and
go home.'
The second man was given the same instructions. He took the gun and went
into the room. All was quiet for about 5 minutes. The man came out with
tears in his eyes, 'I tried, but I can't kill my wife.'
The agent said, 'You don't have what it takes. Take your wife and go home.'
Finally, it was the woman's turn. She was given the same instructions, to
kill her husband. She took the gun and went into the room. Shots were
heard, one after another. They heard screaming, crashing, banging on the
walls. After a few minutes, all was quiet. The door opened slowly and
there stood the woman. She wiped the sweat from her brow.
'This gun is loaded with blanks' she said. 'I had to beat him to death with
the chair.'
MORAL of the story:
Women will get the job done.
Don't mess with them.
Pass on this advice!!!
If only we have the same kind of democracy over here.
I am really at a loss of what kind of workers we are churning out these days. I have loss track of just how many university there are in MY. Recently I came to know about the existence of a University of Perlis. It seems that every state in this country now have a so called higher learning institution called university. I have not Google it yet because I don't feel the need to. I think it is some kind of ex-polytechnic or institute that had been converted to university status.
Two engineers graduated from this uni came in to work in my place. Since they are both freshie and are in the same group as I am, I have some enlightening experience talking and working with them. I do not know how to describe them or how to categorize them. All I could think of was the word SPOON FED. I just can't help it. They can't think, won't ask, do what they are told and don't do what they are not told.
Simple as 1-2-3. So in our line of work we need to be creative, analytic and resourceful. It is disappointing to say they have none of this characteristic.
Therefore with this and my past experience with a first class honours electrical and electronic grad from our top prestigious University of Malaya, I find them all very very soft. Perhaps it's all due to spoon feeding. Some of them don't know the basic of wire stripping and yet had the nerve to tell me that they use to have a stripping machine in the lab. In my knowledge the stripping of wire are an extremely low skills act, in fact it is the most basic skills for any hands on engineer. The UM guy had the nerve to tell me that …..oh…….I never did any lab……….most of his project was software base. Can you imagine receiving an answer like that ? Its all so flaw……the whole education system. What are we training out ?? A bunch of operator or robots who just follow instruction. There is no independent critical thinking nor self reliance or resourcefulness.
I hope somebody in the gov realizes this sooner better than later. If this goes on, we would all be robot and thus creativity would be dead and long gone.
Bear Remover
A man wakes up one morning in Alaska to find a bear on his roof. So he looks in the yellow pages and sure enough, there's an ad for 'Bear Removers.'
He calls the number, and the bear remover says he'll be over in 30 minutes. The bear remover arrives, and gets out of his van. He's got a ladder, a baseball bat, a shotgun and a mean old pit bull.
'What are you going to do,' the homeowner asks?
'I'm going to put this ladder up against the roof, then I'm going to go up there and knock the bear off the roof with this baseball bat. When the bear falls off, the pit bull is trained to grab his testicles with his jaw and not let go. The bear will then be subdued enough for me to put him in the cage in the back of the van.'
He hands the shotgun to the homeowner.
'What's the shotgun for?' asks the homeowner.
'If the bear knocks me off the roof, shoot the dog.'
"He said Pas would hold a meeting soon to look at the list of party members who could take PKNS to greater heights."
Its not a joke. The running of state investment arms / corporation and others are headed by nincompoop, idiots who doesn't have an IQ higher than 10. I mean when dealing with finance or companies, just stick with credible, proven and corporate individual la. Why hired some members who even doesn't have a CV. Its pathetic. How to grow if this keeps going on ?
I had read a well written article on Sun. Here's the article. Thought I need to share it with the 'learned' world.
After I had finish with the article I wonder what those fanatics, ulama and so called religious expert reaction would be. To compound the issue further it was written by a muslim woman. I hope there are some .......no I hope there are more good people in this world who aren't selfish and aren't self centre. Please open the minds and unlock it potential. I always govern my life by 2 principles.
1. Think common sense
2. Think logically
I wasn't very active this week because was busy and also having a major back pain again.
I would like to comment about what's the major issue in the cyberspace. "FREEDOM OF PRESS". I had been an occasional follower of this blog. Nevertheless, it wasn't until a few weeks ago that I only become a regular and hook to its political report and etc. However, the blogger totally piss me off with his recent support of a politically bias mainstream media. All this in the name of "FREEDOM OF PRESS". He was actually against the idea of a prominent MP having a go at his favorite paper.
I was aghast and what the fu*%&*. The bias paper wrote an absolute nonsense fabricating a story and got this MP sent to ISA detention. I mean how bad it can get. There's no rule of law here obviously. What is really freedom of press? Is it a free hand to write whatever rubbish or even fabricated ones? There's a fine line between what's right and what's wrong. Obviously the editor and the writer was being irresponsible to write something like this in times of critical tension. After all because of an irresponsible writer the MP was detained under ISA for almost a week. If it didn't cause any hardship to her and her family then I think the writer could still be forgiven but then she was detain and denied the right for self defense. I don't think being detained under ISA or the police are a walk in the park. It is neither fun, relax and casual. Its like the end of the world I presume. So you wanna talk about "FREEDOM OF PRESS". Just ask the writer to volunteer himself for a week detention and see how he feels about it. Preposterous.
