Reporting In

Fresh Start

Its almost been five days at my new work place. Similiarly the new Members of Parliaments and the Dewan Undangan Negeri Members are also swearing in around the country. My thanks to all those SMSes recieved regarding my new assignment. I reported for duty at my new workplace with a view to learn as much as I can. The learning curve here is pretty steep. You have to know almost everyone and everything in the State Civil Service and beyond if you are to be able to move here and at the same time make changes of your own.

Day one was a challenge in trying to familiarise with the work environment and studying the work processes. I hope to adjust myself in the shortest possible time

The work environment is conducive - I share a room with another officer and we get to have our own television and stereo player

Like I said the first task was to make sure everything was in tip top condition. Working here means making the right decision everytime if not most of the time and one needs the most up to date support system and equipment. Speed is of the essence and there is no specific working hours to adhere to. I spent most of the time tuning the desktop PC at my workstation to ensure every click matters - it took hours to download the updates.

My boss has his own website so feel free to drop by (click at the picture)

By next week I would say I would be able to understand the nuts and bolts of my new assignment. Wish me some more luck coz I know I need a lot of it.
