a month ago, i was finally being briefed on my job scope and the direction which im going to take. its actually learning installation/troubleshooting for network along with learning the administrative rights for web panel. the network part as mentioned previously, has already started early this year. attended CCNA course but had not taken exam due to the learning centre denying certain things. regardless, i wish to take the exam by end of this year. so if the issue cannot be resolved, at most forked out my own money nor. then will have the motivation to learn and put in my best. cos at this moment of time, frankly speaking a lot of stuff is unclear liao lol. anyway, web wise David also taught me before he went for reservice. thats quite clear cut. dun think it will contribute to my resume since different provider has different ways of doing the administrations but hey, at least i understand the possibilities of making it work. and of cos, more about our system.
then suddenly two weeks ago it was announced that i will learn the setup for pbx system. faintz. reason being our pbx engineer is leaving in one month's time. okay theres actually two thoughts that come to mind when i was informed of the above. first will be, hey, a chance to learn something new which i never touch before. if learn well, will have different paths to head in the future should i decide to leave my current job. but at the same time, cant help but feel a tad being used as a last resort. cos my opportunies only come when a colleague is leaving. previously Pearl left so i learnt provisioning. then Soin left. i took over project coordination. now Johny left i will be taking up pbx.
the time given for me to learn each of the skills is really very limited. thats fear that i will not be able to pick up in time and then end up creating more problems you know.. theres 3 big pbx projects coming up in the month to come. Johny isnt really the type thats willing to teach. keep asking me to figure it out by myself. as time is very tight (i have 7 working days left to go), i went to tell Zhang Tao nor. he will talk to Johny about it. thats a lot to learn. have searched online for some documentations. dunno it will help anot. but yah. there will be real-time lab exercise. will be setting the three projects at office for testing. first deployment will be in 2 weeks. God bless me!
