最近

最近好像在工作上很空闲, 自从部门重组后.
re-organization. 我的老板还是我的老板, 但是间接性了 (dotted line), 不再是我的顶头上司. 我把顶头上司称为老大.
从前是 officially function owner of audio, then doing documentation of the team, sub functions is to take care of whatever rubbish in the team, from cable dressing to esd problems, trial run support, model making coordinating... 以前总看到我在公司满场跑, software, mechanical, engineering, safety, quality ... 以前是老板的左右手, 老板不在, 找我也一样行. 前两个月还一人包两个 function, 忙得不亦乐呼..
现在是 officially working in audio only. whatever kind of help required, please talk to my immediate boss. no more required to support other functions.
for weeks, sitting at my desk, doing HSI (hardware software interface), functional and design checklist, studying new ICs... boh pian, one project platform, been changing from IC A to IC B, then the IC B growing from 64 pins to 80 pins.
最另我不解的是, 我们还偶尔要 PR suppliers! suppliers 来关我什么事啊???!!! suppliers come to introduce their new ICs, but don't they know that we have the super strong semiconductor? even though your ICs are good, but how? it's not up to us to choose. our 1st choice of ICs are always from our own's semiconductor what, unless there's something really bad, cannot make it, then only we can source for other suppliers.

at this moment, many ppl became my bosses now. long ago, i only has a boss, my project leader. now my immediate boss is functional manager, then i am also dotted line to development project leader, electrical project leader, system integrator, electrical competency manager, electrical lab manager...... blah..blah...
means, when i need to do a single change, i need to get approval from at least 4 ppl. what he heck! what is the benefits of this kind of ways of working?
i dun see the flexibility of getting my job done, to improve the so called quality. more and more ppl assigned to trace /find the problems but lesser ppl assigned to solve the problems.

today the project leader showing his care by asking me is it i am going back hometown this weekend, means i will go back 'early' (early = knock off from office on time, 5.45pm). well, not he really cares for me, it's coz this friday is the important day, to start up our new board. he hints me that i should be bz for this event. well, i just sorry to tell him that "starting up the board is not my job, is the system integrator's job". admitted, i am a bit nasty in this, since i am now in the functional team, this SYSTEM job is no more my job. i am very OUT from what's going on in the project already. i don't know when is the milestones, when is the model making ... i am lost..

after all, the sad case is, when i asked for job rotating, my ex-boss had somehow rejected me and then the re-organization came in placed. i am not only lose the chance to have job rotating, but had been really away from the project team. i had been stucked in this particular function 100% now.

if you were to ask me which i prefer, the old one or the new one?
i would tell you i like the old system. i rather be bz like hell, but i would be happy to learn on new things, especially cross functional tasks. and i like to walk around to get my things done, i scare to sit at my desk and doing what checklist lah, documents lah.. can sleep there one ah....
~~ 我想找条出路, 到底有没有出路 ~~
