Permanent but working as shift?

Gene_89 — Sun, 31 Dec 2023 22:43:27 +0800

Hi All,

Year 2023 not a really great year for me especially on my career and had been a roller-coaster.

I've been in the current company for 5 years with various of roles. Last role 4 months only zz.

And now company facing challenging financial situation and not in a good shape. Therefore restructuring happen and I've been throw into a department whereby only doing daily routine job with no career advancement. (2-3 years still got career advancement)Probably new boss no trust yet.

And latest news is that I need to work as shift rotation.(Need to work on PH now) Imagine you are a permanent staff but treated as a contract staff. I guess you guys can know what department by mentioning shift. But now I'm not working as customer service / call centre just only transfer department doing other role.

Since I haven't receive any transfer letter from HR, is there any right for the new boss can make such arrangement?

Haiz been interviewed few companies but no luck.

Happy New Year guys~

Switch Department

Gene_89 — Thu, 04 Jun 2020 22:50:51 +0800

Hello all, just a discussion recently I just switch to another department.

This new department require high and fast speedy level of thinking. Firstly was actually my friend asked me whether wants to join his department. Then without thinking much as I want to improve myself and I jump out from old department. This week is the 1st week I started the task. Honestly speaking direct fail as didn't reach the expectation And also prove that my Excel and Powerpoint is not that strong.

Other than hardworking, I think there isn't anyway for to improve right? How can I learn and capture things faster? Because I want to catch up with my new department pace as I'm a slow learner. Just a lil bit of history, I did switch department before (2x) at old company. Ended up could not deliver.
This is the 3rd time and I wish 3rd time the charm as I do not wish to fail again.

Any kind advise would be appreciate.

Hi all internet network sifu, need help on what's the solution for my laptop Wifi as it keep dc randomly rough half an hour or 45 minutes.

My iphone and desktop (win 7) still works perfectly fine on the Wifi. Maybe lies on the win 10 update on my lappy?

Should I change my monitor?

Gene_89 — Wed, 25 Mar 2020 18:28:19 +0800

Hi all,

Would like to ask whether is it better to change my monitor as it has this dark purple patch?

1) I search the internet they say is a dead pixel? Any solution a part from replacing a new one.
2) On the other hand, this monitor already 10-11 years already. So obviously no warranty already. Not bad for a Samsung brand though.

Would like to know now roughly how much for a monitor? Just an average will do no need for high end gaming.

As you can see I'm still using windows 7. Not much usage for my desktop though. Mostly now on my lappy (Windows 10) for work purpose.

Any advise is greatly appreciate. Thank you.

Iphone XS Max GPS not stable

Gene_89 — Mon, 02 Sep 2019 15:39:19 +0800

Hi all Iphone gurus,

Need some advice here. Just change my phone from Iphone 6 to XS Max few months back. Everything was ok so far. Till 2 or 3 weeks ago, went to one place i forgot, my Waze keep showing error 'No GPS. Showing approximate location'. Luckily I still knew the road over there. Even my Pokemon Go says no GPS. Rarely had this before when I'm using Iphone 6 (only happened once lah ) but because too laggy and battery kong already.

The problem is keep on and off which is unstable. When driving, it will suddenly pop up that error which is very dangerous when driving to an unknown place. Hv tried various of troubleshooting:

1) Reboot phone
2) On and off Location Services & Airplane Mode
3) Reset network settings
4) Reset Location & Privacy
4) Deleting Waze and download again.
4) Just update Waze just now, still same error occur.

The only troubleshoot I haven't try is factory reset.

Currently using software 12.4.1 which is the current update. But surprisingly when I'm browsing solution my Waze (forgot to exit) suddenly says "turn left" and Pokemon Go back to normal. Didn't do anything though.

Should I go to Machine service centre for the solution? Coz coming Saturday going to Klang area. Haiz new phone wor, why hv this problem? Z.z

Much help is appreciate. Thank you

Probationary extended 9 months

Gene_89 — Thu, 04 Apr 2019 14:37:28 +0800

Hi all good day,

So yesterday just did my evaluation with my team leader and HR. And to be worst, they extended my probationary period another 3 months.

Actually this is a new company setup since last year. Me and my team leader we entered the company at the same time. At that time, we are in the same boat as our title also the same. So during 3 months, I admitted that I really did mistakes. So after 2 months my job change to another role. By this time, I really carefully executed my job properly. And yet my TL find me under perform and emotional.

So after 3 months++ HR told all of us that we passed our probation period only verbally without confirmation letter as the evaluation did by my direct boss HOD. Then ok I thought we gone through, its just that confirmation letter need to wait pending on some internal investigations. I enter in mid November 18 so should be confirm on somewhere around mid Feb 19.

After several months of waiting, finally April and I felt weird why evaluate again. To my surprise, all my score was very poor and the only one excellence is my attendance punctuality. So management decided to extend me another 3 months that means July only I will be confirm. Add on my role will change again as they found out I could not fit in the current role which I had 3 years of experience. Then only i realise today things change when our management restructure again which my department is not under the same HOD.

Should I find another job or continue till July? I feel like I'm wasting my time for 9 months only confirm. If hop to another new job there will be another 3 months probation also.

New setup company/department really tough as all SOP only being setup. For me, I think I more suit to maintaining. Any recommendation guys?

Greetings everyone. I just bought a TP-LINK MODEL TD-W8961N modem few weeks ago. I had done some settings and the internet was normal. But sometimes it is very unstable and the internet line will disconnect very frequently. My connection all are connected to the right plug. I keep on off and on the modem and this is very annoying.
