It's the third week of FYP and so far it has been quite stressful for me but the great part is that my supervisor is a slacker lol. I got attach to the lab that creates project for other companies. It's good that we get to learn and gain experience but the bad part is that this is the most strictest lab ever. Firstly no shorts & slippers. We are not allowed to surf other site except for work related purpose. We are not allow to listen to mp3, gaming or sleep. We have two attendance to sign in. One is from the computer and the other one is from a form. So many rules and i feel that we are in a prison + zoo. Why do i say that? well we have two surveillance cameras in the lab, one huge window at the top so the visitors or lecturers on the 2nd floor are able to check on us & there's always big group of visitors coming to our lab all the time looking at us as if we are some kind of animal or something. The worst is that we have a technical officer who is always in this lab as this is where he normally does his work. His really strict and fierce and he monitors our every movement. We will get an earful if we came back late from our breaks, surf unrelated sites, talking too much, playing games or listening to mp3. I envy those people from other labs as they aren't that strict compared to ours but for work wise ours is the best so i guess it's fair=/.
So far i have been assigned to assemble 3 different sets & to design a machine operation for a certain product. My partner went for an operation so im on my own for now. The assembling looks easy at first but once you start doing it i swear it's not. I encounter different types of problem & one thing good is that i was able to learn a lot all thanks to the technical officer. He may be strict but for work wise his really helpful & always there to help us out. His also generous in teaching and sharing useful information to us. Well he won't give us the solutions right away and that's the good think as his training us to be independant, decision-making and problem solving on our own. So i guess his not bad after all.
As for today the officer is on leave so that's the reason why im blogging right now. I guess i will be slacking more and may or may not continue with my assembling as i just can't be bothered today haha. Alright it's break time now and im going to feed the fishes again.
