First non-working Saturday..but got to work..

Today is the first non-working Saturday with the new company, but...I've to come to the office. Uwaaaa...
But before ke ofis tu, pi DU. Siap breakfast kat situ...sbb nk jumpa Mint, amik baju dia nak tempah and brg Avon yg aku order. Dpt tengok si Mika yg comei tu. Dh montel..and dh pandai senyum tuuu. Bulu mata....hmm..mcm awning! Hehehehe


Ok, back to the story...
I need to coordinate and attending the 2nd interview that they have scheduled it before I joined. This 2nd interview was for UTM's student that they have screened and shortlisted during their career fair last March.


Yang datang semua budak Melayu. I guess mmg diaorg shortlisted all Bumis or tepat sekali Melayu. But, apa-apa pun I do proud of anak bangsa kita ni. Ada yang memang top scorer..tapi rata2 mmg they earned good grades, mostly 3 pointer. For me, eventhough they are diploma holder, but to earned 3 pointer in Engineering courses...I do respect them. Itulah, siapa kata anak bangsa kita ni tak mampu...sebenarnya ramai yg boleh!


Tadi ada sorang candidate tu...from Terengganu, dia ni memang menarik minat kami. Dari start a bit dull je situasi interview tu, tapi bila dia ni masuk, we all mcm di energized. He's sumthing different. Got confident, itu yang menarik tentang dia and he really straight forward punya guy.


Biasalah, bila kita talk about, English speaking, memang lah anak bangsa kita not really fluent. Tapi, jgn kita ingat anak bangsa kita aje ya....sebenarnya bangsa lain tu, belum tentu betul Englishnya. Cuma diaorg biasa dh ckp...tu sbb dgr mcm cair aje. Kalau ikut pelatnya lagi lebih...cuma kita ni, mmg suka skeptikal dengan bangsa sendiri. Tapi, mcm tadi...diaorg memang berusaha utk berckp dlm English ni. Walaupun, we the panels, tanya dalam bahasa yang campur2 utk memudahkan diaorg faham...but ada yang keep on speaking. That's what we want to see!


Ok, berbalik kepada budak tadi, nama dia tak silapnya Zulhisham. Satu quality yg paling nmpk dlm diri dia, is confident. He really confident with himself and what he wants to say. It seems smua panel enjoy dgn dia. Kira dia ni boost us up la tadi...hehehe


Yg paling tak boleh lupa..dia ditanya samada dia ada mintak to further his study ke tak..dia kata, tak. Then kena tanya la why...sbb ramai yg ada plan utk further and ramai yg terus daftar. Dia kata...'I want to relax'. Bila tanya kenapa nak relaks pulak, nanti dh tua lagi susah nak belajar. Dia kata...sbb study ni teruk, kena struggle. Dia tk tido malam....study smpai pkl 3 pagi. In fact dia tak main any sukan sbb tak ada masa. Sedangkan masa sekolah dia main hoki. Dia kena study hard. Tapi, bg aku berbaloi sbb dia grad with 3.6 tk silapnya. No wonder lah kan...mmg harapnya itulah semangat yg akan kekal dlm diri dia.


Dia kata lagi...dia nak kerja dulu. Sbb kerja, ikut masa...dia tak payah struggle nak peksa, nak siap assignment, buat homework smua katanya. Dia boleh tidur cepat. Kitaorg dh tersenyum2 masa ni. Lepas tu our Senior GM, Encik Halim usik dia...sini pun kalo u kerja, ada project u kena tk tido juga. Smpai 3 -4 pagi juga. Dia kata...tk apa, sbb pagi nanti, dia boleh tido.


Tapi yg paling buat kitaorg tak boleh lupa dia ni...sbb 'short-term memory' dia...hehehe. Dia kata, dia kena study mcm tu, sbb 'I got short-term memory'. Encik Halim...haaa? Short-term memory? Dia pun kata...ye la, bila dah baca...lupa. Lebih2 lagi bab teori. Dia tak suka teori2 ni...sbb dia ada short term memory. Kitaorg dh senyum dah...but he still in control and confident with his statement. Lepas tu, aku mmg le saja tanya dia dalam BM. Sebab noticed that, ada part Encik Halim pun ckp melayu...Encik Jai pun sama, but he answered them in English. He still answered in English juga.


Dan yg paling buat panels give extra credit to him, selain dari knowledge dia dlm tecnical aspect, dia kata, sbb dia struggle abih tu is dia tak nak jadi normal person. 'I dont want to be normal person. I want to be different. If normal person, i just study and pass only. But I want to score. If I normal, people dont know about my existing.' Walaupun tk betul ayatnya, tapi the message was there kan?


Bila tgk diaorg tadi...and dengar English fresh grad ni, teringat masa dulu. Yes, I was like that before. My English pun lebih kurang mcm tu...I know the feeling. Just that, now...a bit improved lah boleh dikatakan. May be tak sebagus mana....but I can feel the improvement, bila dgr adik2 tu bercakap tadi. Tapi, yg bagusnya....diaorg sehabis daya berckp dlm English. I do proud of them. Bagus...bkn kita tk boleh pergi jauh, memang boleh selagi ada kita2 ni yang dpt bagi peluang pada diaorg. Siapa lagi...kalo bukan kita yang dah berada dlm organisasi ni.


I do respect Encik Halim ni. Nampk he a bit strict...tapi dalam strict2 dia...dia tak condemn org. If kita salah ke..dia ckp je..jawapan u salah. Walau dia tanya mcm2, towards the end...dia mmg akan recommend. Dia tak memilih, as long as u bagus...he will take u. Technical knwledge dia, tak boleh dipertikaikan lah, at his fingertips je. Dia actually seconded from TNB ke TSG ni. Eh, apasal aku dok memuji Encik Halim ni...kekekeke, heee...pujilah, nanti kot dh kena marah sekali dgn dia...baru le tak terpuji dah aku..kakakka.


Tadi, the panels are En Halim, En Jai, Shahrir and me. Shahrir baru naik pangkat ke Engineer lepas amik degree. Career planning kat TSG ni bagus...mmg digalakkan utk upgrade diri... Tapikan, masih ramai juga berhenti....hmmm, kenapa ya? And aku...just joining. Suspen gue..
