viciouskitty74 SG Reminds me of the tampons extraction device joke. A man needed to pee urgently and couldnt find a male toliet. So he asked a female employee to let him into a female toliet. The female employee agrees provided he promises not to touch any buttons on the toliet wall. Anyway, man did his business and was wondering at what the buttons on the toliet wall do. So he pressed one. Next thing he knew, he woke up in the hospital. He asked what happened. The nurse smirked and tells him: You pressed a button for tampon removal in the toliet.
laurence82 SG quite true IT goons should not be near pc, especially seriously stupid goons, and if any tampering with the software might cause losses in huge monetary terms everyday, the IT support team next to my dept curse and swear at clients who are really helpless in IT and still dare insist they are right they are wondering how come these peopel are allowed anywhere near the pc
Fatum SG you'll be so surprised ... read my rant about some certified professional engineer trying to push 10 years worth of data over a link and put a bug up wondering why it was crashing ......
littlestream SG ah........good to hear, ah lau......*pats on back*.......i am glad n happy for you. the thing i find about being in a big corp is movement. one gets to move around. so many different dept to either upgrade oneself or to learn a different pocket of the bank/finance industry. there's a lot to learn and explore. besides, as one arms oneself with the varied experience, you become more marketable. particularly in risk or credit. investment of course if attractive but the life span can be short. i.e. if your portfolio get stagnant. oops, am i talking too much? sorry anyways, all the very best, ah lau hard work do pays off and you get that self satisfaction too. i did and i am sure u will
