It was few days ago when I got informed that the project is approaching completion. I think nobody would actually tell me anything about its progress if I didn’t question on it. Yes, that’s the project I mentioned months ago, laboratory instrumental maintenance.
Well, I done it a month ago, and for the whole month after that, neither my supervisor nor manager came to tell me about the project. It seems they didn’t care about it at all. I knew they were busy hence they couldn’t have started to work on it. Well, I handed over my stuff, so I think that’s all I can do. However, I was still wondering what they thought about the work that I done. Did they satisfy with it? Is there any comment from them, either good or bad?
Sigh, I heard nothing. 😦
Until the moment I asked my supervisor, “Hey, so how’s my project? Is everything alright?”
Then I got the reply, finally. He said yes, he just discussed with manager last Tuesday (2 days ago). He stopped there without explained much. Then I said, is everything okay? I told him I was worried if anything that I need to change, please keep me informed earlier, and not last-minute.
He continued and said: “Oh, everything is ok. Manager and I will propose it in the meeting later, with Brewing Manager.”
Eventually, I heard these sentences from him and that made me felt much relax.
On the other hand, I also felt annoyed by that. I was thinking why they didn’t plan to tell me even a word before I asked them? They were going to propose the project which I completed it all the way alone, without getting me informed. Though I know I am just a trainee, but please, that’s my effort! I am the owner of the proposal! I am the one and only one who actually searching, typing and preparing everything in order to complete them! I don’t need you to praise but I think I at least need to get some respect from you!
And now, the managers involved, both from QPA and Brewing, agreed with the proposed plan. And few hours ago, I was in the office, giving the last strike on the project, compiling it into a folder, and make sure it is well-organized and nicely presented.
They are going to propose it to another meeting, which this time to the Supply Chain Director. Of course, again, that’s my master piece. But nobody would remember that fact.
Though I know there is room of improvement, I still believe the work I done is something need to be appreciated but it seems like they were ignoring my whole effort in doing it. The best word I heard after passed over the folder to my supervisor, he said WOW.
Anyway, this is life. I am just a trainee. Seriously, whether you trust me or not, I am just asking for some respect as a trainee. That’s it! Put it this way, 我只是想要你利用一分钟的时间通知我,让我知道到底我做的那份报告怎样了.
Now, regardless of anything, the project is over. Though they didn’t say anything about the work, to me, they were saying no problem, meaning good enough. 🙂 That’s it.
I hate to deal with instruments especially have to read the instruments manual, get to know about the parts of the instruments and how to deal with them. And the instruments don’t talk! You know, but I love talking. 🙂 Haha
Well, put away this topic. Fortunately, I have met good friends there. Without people like them, I guess I might experience the training life-like staying in hell!
Life in Guinness in soon reaches the end. I will soon post an article to give my placement experience a conclusion. 🙂
Ops I am going to print at least 400 pages of words, because 200 pages per report. I am sorry, trees!
