Off Limits

Today I presented the test results for proposed sites field measurement done three weeks ago. The rest of the room is filled with men engineers, and only 3 of us are lady engineers. Not that bad because one of the consultant engineers is a nice lady. The same thing happen again, the Chairman questioned our Method Statement of which very annoying since the first meeting lagi dah decide the methodology. Biar je lah. Buat donno je as long as the results accepted by consultant. Nasib baik aku tak mengamuk macam last meeting before we set off to work on the ground. Although they are senior engineers they should trust their own people. Walaupun kami bukan dari Engineering department, kerja-kerja tu memang dah routine group aku nih. So, nk query banyak2 pun tak guna. Lain lah kalau kitaorg baru buat keje sebulan dua. Malas nak layan Chairman itu. We ended up abandoning the other 2 sites and proceed with one measured site. Then, nk kena choose another site utk buat test lagi. Yang ni tak tahulah berapa banyak pulak nk kena buat. Macam-macam hal. Whatever pun aku memang kena gi site lepas ni sampai lah keje ni mmg completely wrapped up i.e. consultant puas hati and boleh proceed dengan design grounding electrode station tuh. Harus aku dapatkan title Ir tu dalam masa terdekat ni. Aku rasa lah kan lepas ni kalau depan nama aku ada Ir. Dr. tapi still ada org nk argue psl method statement, memang harus aku sound direct je orang tuh. Hehehe.

Lunch time met my DH at Boulevard and DH teman me lunch kat food court. Kebetulan dia ada workshop kat Midvalley jugak. Pegi kat Pet Shop near GSC MidValley tuh, mmg comel sungguh pets yg ada kat situ, dari ikan sampai lah arnab yg harganya beratus-ratus RM. We had a chance to look at tiny green turtles that we promised Nabilah on her coming 6^th birthday next January. Kira-kira tak sampai RM50 pun utk 2 ekor turtles and cage with rocks, plants and small pebbles. Lepas tu singgah pulak kat PC & Electronics Fair at the same level. Mak aii, LCD TV sungguh cantik ditengok tp harga puluh-puluh ribu RM. Best pulak tengok Transformer kt LCD TV. Tengok kamera Lumix dgn Leica lens pun murah gak dlm RM300 to RM500 je, still affordable to buy lah. If I got my bonus this year, Insyaallah boleh beli satu kamera ut gantikan kamera Lumix Leica yg rosak dibuat oleh anak-anakku itu (terbang RM1200 time tuh.. sungguh menyedihkan).

Few more hours to work on the report for IrDrA and the next presentation for the Working Committee on Thursday pulak. A very busy week ahead of me. Bila lah boleh rilek sket nak menulis thesis. Aduhaii..
