IAP

good evenin' guys.

work has been consistent for the past weeks.
first week of attachment was on Creative Product-Training.
so, to roughly sum it up, we took 3days learnin' on mp3 players plus the softwares.
webcams, video-conferencing device plus the softwares on the 4th day.
headphones, speakers, soundcards plus the softwares on the last.

well, fun learning and fiddling with the devices...but there's just too much to remember. especially the troubleshooting steps and stuff. ouh well, glad i'm put in the Direct Sales team. so basically i just have to answer the questions the customer is enquiring about a product he/she is interested in. but still, it takes time searching for sheyts.

and here's the catch...we, in DS have a quota of 70+ mails a day...or is it 100+? because Technical Support's quota's 60+ and they say DS is to be expected to do twice as much. and our time limit's only 3minutes while TS is 6. that includes your researching for answers and typing your email. =_=" well so far, the most i can do is 31 emails. hahahaha. how fun is that?

and here's somethin' else. because we are put in Customer Service [not really in the line of IT anymore], the school told Creative to give us a project related to our course. [=.= to that...]
two options for the project :
> to create a...you know the recent project for mr. soong? yeah...that one. the coding sheyt with database...
> to create a...errr, flash animation of any mp3 players that allows you to navigate on the computer; which means when you click on the 'play' button of the player in the computer, the screen of the player should be moving exactly how it should be on the device.

so our resources for that?
first option : we are to use C# programming language! [something we were not taught before]
second option : flash program [something we learned but just the very basic of it]
do we have any other choices? well, we can opt out of the project and 100%-ly focus on doin' emails.

to be honest, if i had a choice, i'd rather concentrate on doing emails. but i don't think it's even a choice. it's fine with the company but with our school? highly unlikely. in the end, the school will be the one grading us still, right? so really, it sucks. i mean for now i'm not feeling the stress but when we start doin' the freakin' project, ahhhh, i'm gonna be seen with that grumpy, grouchy, petulant face again. sheeesh!

it's like...a month ago, i had to learn about food and drinks, now it's another thing. like, sigh. always learning! always being graded! always, tsk, haiyuh!

you see, i started out calmly with the greeting and ended up with sulkiness! tssshhh...
