Where's my tinge of perfectionism
Finally completed part of my estimation. probablly, and i hope, enough for my team leader to come up with a decent BQ to show the client.
Then again, there's no such thing as "drafts" when the client is concered.
i took 3 hours just to edit 1 level out of 6, and it's still not perfect.
protocols were non-existent. formats were haywired. and time is as short as a pea dick. pardon me but half of me needed more time, the other half just wanted to completed it asap so that i don't hold everything else back. to be honest, i was stressed and i couldn't get myself to bother about the minor imperfection which were of unacceptable standards. there was a point my whole body when numb and i couldn't think, whether the figures had already been added or that i had to substract them. i couldn't think anymore!!!i
and to made it worse, kept reminding myself what i have set my mind to be the night before - to do my estimation well, don't let my team leader down... but the more i think the more pressure i put on myself... and that feeling really sucked. there were many points in time i just felt i wasn't cut out to be a QS. i should just stick to trying to be a scuba diving instructor.
on the brighter note, i really learnt alot of things! like from all the silly mistakes i made... and to confessed, i commited the worst mistake a QS could have made... i actually misplaced the decimal point... from 23.5 to 2.35... and i cannot thank God enough for realising it in time. and i want to make a special note, on how my team leader' laughter is such a good destresser. i must say, she has been quite patient with me... and that she would be amused at the slightest thing, and it really helps to make me and joshy feel comfortable around... in a faraway land, we are grateful to have her around!!!
Enough of myself, my dearest co-intern's work, aka joshy, is piling up!!! She was so busy today, she had to sit away from me to use a different computer... for the first time... she had to do BQs in chinese... muahaha! but i'm happy! because she claims to be the only idiot who would be happy to have work coming... oh well, joshy, whatever that makes u larky happy! *ps. she makes horrible coffee for herself.
That's it, end of story session... SDE friends - share ur stories on ur blogs please!!!!
