Engineer's dilemma
All the while I'm teasing manager in making decision. However, today I facing same problem.
Wireless or fiber optic communication medium?
I'm majoring in computer and communication for my Degree, but communication is my weakest subject. I try to study hard but still the result is bad. Luckily I'm able to graduate :)
After working with wired (copper and fiber optic) communication for five years, I had promise myself to breakthrough this limit. I want to use wireless in my future project.
In end of year 2005, I have a project in hand (this was my most failure project) and I want to experiment with wireless communication. However, because of the cost of these wireless devices, I had abandon my dream.
In end of year 2006, once again, I have a project and I promise myself I will use wireless this time. Due to the cost, I can only choose wireless or fiber optic.
Everyone is choosing fiber optic, because it's "traditional" way of communication. Everyone is thinking that fiber optic is a "safe" choice.
If I choose wireless and at the end if this solution failed, I will in deep shit, but if I success no one will know. I don't mind to take risk, since I already a deadwood in my company :|, another failure to me is just a "norm" again. But because of my personal dream and I let everyone else to take risk with me. Can I do this?
First step is the most difficult step, it may fail but if you don't move your leg, you will alway standing there, forever.
One day I will make my first move. I will not be a hero, no one will notice the move I had make, but by then I'm in front of you :)
are you alright ? because i don't understand a single work you say !!!
ReplyDeleteha ha, my english is better than you or it become worst until you dont under stand it.
ReplyDeletei'm ok. just have to choose between trying a new technology or back to old staff.
as i said, experience is just a short cut for those people that dont want to move forward.
using something not so advance but acceptable by everyone is a for "experience people". using something advance but may fail is a challenge for engineer.
you want the challenge or the rice bowl?
Which one project u mention failure? I hope the project which i not in charge hehehe...
ReplyDeleteI think i never did a failure project to you la... right? I most complete the project and need to clean the shit la.. but the shit is easy to clean up.
About the wireless or fiber optic,
i prefer the wireless than fiber optic... last time, i work the fiber optic with u at Mxxx, i help the wire man pull the optic cable... very scare it break... not so good.
Hope u can realise ur dream too
sk....my advise to u is to GO FOR IT!!!! i dunno why u consider yrself a deadwood? u r one of the most intelligent people i know dude..... nothing ventured, nothing gained...so fuck the rest and live yr dreams man. I m behind u all the way bro. by the way, its the company's loss if they don't recognise talent.
ReplyDeletethanks man :)
ReplyDeleteFive surgeons were taking a coffee break. The first surgeon said, "Accountants are the best to operate on because when you open them up, everything inside is numbered."
ReplyDeleteThe second surgeon said, "Nah, librarians are the best. Everything inside them is in alphabetical order."
The third surgeon responded, "Try electricians, man! Everything inside them is color coded."
Then the fourth doctor interceded, "I prefer lawyers. They're heartless, spineless, gutless and their heads and their butts are interchangeable."
To which the fifth surgeon, who had been quietly listening to the conversation, replied, "I like engineers. They always understand when you have a few parts left over at the end."
woh..... what a nice joke. thanks.
ReplyDeletemy advice is to go for it. the wired is the best system i have seen. it works 100% and it never fail before. i will trust wired forever. wired is cheap and good. wired is simple and good. wired is sooo fun. so try wired. wireless is just an expensive toy by people who got tooooo much time :)
ReplyDeletei agreed that wired is the best, that why until today people are still using pstn. but there are two problems of wires.
ReplyDelete1. there is possibility that the wired will broken.
2. the installation is more difficult.
wireless is expensive if the distance is short. but once it reach a certain distance it become cheap due to the cost of material and installation work for wired.
but wireless are more easier being interfere.
anyway, each technology has it adv. and disadv. just see which suite you best.
more jokes that I'm sure you'll like....
ReplyDeleteA man in a hot air balloon realized he was lost.
He reduced altitude and spotted a woman below. He descended a bit more and shouted,
"Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don't know where I am."
The woman below replied, "You are in a hot air balloon hovering approximately 30 feet above the ground. You are between 40 and 41 degrees north latitude and between 59 and 60 degrees west longitude."
"You must be an engineer," said the balloonist.
"I am," replied the woman, How did you know?"
"Well," answered the balloonist, "everything you told me is, technically Correct, but I have no idea what to make of your information, and the fact is I am still lost. Frankly, you've not been much help so far."
The woman below responded, "You must be a manager."
"I am," replied the balloonist, "but how did you know?"
"Well," said the woman, you don't know where you are or where you are going. You have risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise which you have no idea how to keep, and you expect people beneath you to solve your problems. The fact is you are in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but now, somehow, it's my fault".
A programmer had been missing from work for over a week when finally someone noticed and called the cops. They went round to his flat and broke down the door. They found him dead in the still running shower with an empty bottle of shampoo next to his body. Apparently he'd been washing his hair.
ReplyDeleteThe instructions on the bottle said:
1. Wet hair
2. Apply shampoo
3. Lather
4. Rinse
5. Repeat 1
