Maddening May

May has been an awful month where work is concerned.  The SAP integration project went Live on 26th May, however I had overlooked one issue related to displaying the dispute intent on the chat menu and another issue on an onboarding setup for China.  

What upset me most was that the manager just took me off the onboarding process and asked the obnoxious asshole to take over, I felt like I haven't been given the chance to fix my mistakes.  I was extremely upset, even coming to the verge of wanting to cry.  As that asshole took over the onboarding activities, he started asking questions that made me feel like I haven't done my work.  Well....  The miss on displaying the intent on chat menu was because he said we just need 1 user story and the different teams will work from that user story.  Guess what... the other team didn't come in at all.  I had asked if I need to create another ticket and he said "No", so I had assumed that the other team would come in by themselves.  Man...  it was such a big mistake to just trust him, although I was also at fault for not performing the check on Live environment.  To make things worse, the China team came with a last minute request on Friday to update the queue setup for the web channel.  I was so pissed off, they didn't respond to my inquiries timely, so I fixed the onboarding setup for them, and then at the eleventh hour they mentioned it is not what they want.

Unceremoniously Taken Off The Project

Fujifilm Natura Classica

When I sold my D90 in mid-2009, I was still undecided between D700 and 5D Mark II.  In the few months I was researching which system I was going to commit myself to, I stumbled upon this interesting camera:

Fujifilm Natura Classica

This is a compact camera that is capable of utilizing films with ISO rating 800 and 1600.  This model is only sold in Japan (and Hong Kong grey market) although ironically it is made in Indonesia.  So I bought it from Ebay, shipped from Hong Kong along with 16 rolls of Natura 1600 films.
