The Lone Coder..

What a whirlwind week! Weeks full of suspend. Just last week I'd been yell at by some weirdo who thinks he's above everyone else and played god. With all those annoying distractions I managed to focus my remaining energy or what's left of it on my tasks thus ignoring those petty issues created by some privilege few. My workloads are getting heavier each day, updating the design documentation as my coding progress. It has been a slow progress but I'm getting there and next week I'll be doing the unit testing and getting ready for the next build released. To cut the story short, I'm doing 2 persons task nowadays. I've to work on the interfaces or upper modules as well as the background modules. The new comer still has a lot to learn. His progress is slow as expected and often seeks my advice on certain part of their design, and my works got interrupted most of the time. Then, I've to troubleshoot the existing products as well. Yeah, I just discovered a bug .. yeah Ric, a bug.. a small tiny little bug running inside the Intrinsic. In fact, I feel like I'm the center of everything these days, answering questions, emails, preparing instructions etc etc.. and I feel that most of these tasks used to be carried by my senior but now.. everything, responsibilies are being dumped to me without giving me much choices to choose from. Sadly, I'm still in the same old position and being receiving the same wages, under privileges and my review is nowhere in sight. I remember how my colleagues and I struggled to rush out our software into the market during the bad time and now, all that has been forgotten.. no acknowledgement etc.. yeah, preaching about loyalty. I'm getting fed up and tired all this. Everyday, I sit infront of my PC from 7.30am, lunch time till 5.. sometimes, working remotely from home till late and Yang is very concerned about my sudden change of extreme routine. I've tried to highlight my issues and my concern on the project deadline but nobody seems to care. I've a feeling that some are trying to avoid sitting down and talk about the real issue. Bloody tiring ..
