Vocal

Hi.

You might notice that I seldom blog in nowadays.

I'm fighting my wars on few fronts.

I'm off from work today because I couldn't move.

Dear doctor gave some muscle relaxant pills.

I might be off tomorrow of the intense pain.

One good thing about not blogging is learning not to be too vocal.

I sometimes wrote in this blog about "Enjoy the silence".

 A recurring theme in this blog.

 

Yesterday at work, 2 things happened.

1st, an Assistant Mech Manager of the Korean Main-Con argued with my boss over some scope of work.

The problem is, which is the most irritating fact is,

this Korean guy didn't study the Contract,

and simply making assumptions.

Although engineers are prone to making assumptions,

but one must know that

ASSUME means

making an ASS out of U and ME.

Because of his senior position, his argument ends with "I don't know, I don't care" 

and it looks irritatingly silly.

Study. Read and Learn before you want to be vocal.

The problem of people nowadays, 

is

they didn't put much effort

into

Learning and Studying

but 

they depend too much on asking and arguing.

I've seen this in Social Media

and frighteningly

at my work place.

Everybody want to speak.

Everybody thinks its their freedom of speech.

In the end,

it is just

chicken noises.

For engineers, especially young ones.

Keep your mouth shut often. 

Study and Learn first.

Read documents and study drawings.

 You will see old Engineers

like that Korean guy

who simply assume things

and making an ass out of himself.

2nd thing, a worker of mine got into shit

when he posted this photo

on his Facebook.

Because he didn't get his salary.

Apparently his boss, which is my Sub-con,

throw him out of the Project.
It is silly.

But silly things happen,

when people got emotional.

 

Whether about the world,

about Malaysian politics

about Zakir Naik,

about whatsoever and whomsoever.

Try your best

not to be vocal

when you are emotional.

Even professional people,

engineers and lawyers,

look silly sometimes.
