Looking Forward

It was Winter Solstice yesterday, in which day, the day is the shortest in the year. In other word, days are becoming langer from today.

The "Winter Solstice" really means the arrival of winer, but i'd like to consider it as the sign of leaving, though it will become colder in the following days.

My great job-hunting era has gone, LOL, but the next era will not be any easier. However, i would like to torture Gorky's famous "Petrel".

"im looking forward for you coming", wrote My furture colleague, "well, me too", I replied.

Old Friend

I meat my deskmate yesterday, we haven't meat each other for 8 more years. and it's really amazing experience to meat an old friend.

She had been my deskmate for one semester, in the last year of my Junior middle. And she was my last female deskmate, hehehe. i'd totally lost contract with her since graduate from junior middle, so are most of my classmates.

She said i hadn't changed much, since she can easily recognized me. well so she had. the significant change from apperance is i ware a pair of glasses while she took them off. but inside, i don't know how much we've changed or matured.

FIFO - First In First Offer

i had a interview with huawei-3com the other day, at the second round, they asked me for desired working locations. and i told them i wanted a position in beijing. they answered there were no positions available in beijing left. and then, they regreted to tell me(or pretended to be regretful), coversation has came to it end. "we'll notify you if we have new position."

later did i hear that beijing offers have been given out before i got interviewed. well, when i heard this news, i could help saying "what the f***!", ( well, actually i said "wo kao" in chinese).

i guess there're quite lot computer engineers in huawei-3com, and they are very fond of the data structure called "queue", which is FIFO( First In First Out). and they modified it, applied it to their recruiment process, that is First In First Offer, hehehe.

To Sign or not to Sign

finally, i decided not to sign ZTE.

though they can provide a sound salary, working postion in shanghai and a beautiful promise of personal career.

ZTE is not my first choice, if i sign a contract with ZTE today, then, my be i'll break the contract because the involing of my dream company.

it'll be a hurt to both sides if the contract was reneged. i don't want to hurt any one, or being hurt by anyone. and if i don't sign, others might get chance to thier dreaming ZTE.

I found it more and more simliar between hunting a job and finding a g/f. --easy man get easy jobs. easy girls get laid by easy guys. hehehe
